First backpack of the season, this is from my campsite on a red rock shelf about 10 feet above the creek. This was taken before sunrise hit the canyon. It was a brisk 40 degrees and I got out of my warm sleeping bag to take this!

Great composition and scenery. I love this picture. If there is one thing I can think of for improvement it would be to play with the colors in Photoshop to slightly add some intensity to the red color range. That would be a definite 10 after my taste with those green trees against red rocks. Right now they look slightly pale. Still a great rating though ;)
very nice image, although i feel crowed when I look at the photo. I think that is just the over all feeling I get. Could be different for someone else :). I really like contrasts between the greens and reds.
looks like Utah!
for a landscape shot, I generally feel that the viewer should have a longer line of sight - there should be objects visible in the distance visible. landscapes should not have a "closed in" feeling - they should be open and expansive.
the slow shutter speed is nice, the soft water always adds to a picture, the color is good but the shot is a little close, all bunche in a frame, if this were wider it would be much better, still a good shot.
