I really like this a lot, I just wish it had more contrast. On my monitor, there are no whites/highlights whatsoever. Is this an effect you were going for?

Well you don't have to worry. I am selling my 2 sigma's and found out I didn't have the APO just the DL lol. So I edited it for the DL.

Really nice picture, I think if the rock was slightly off center the shot would be improved.

Awesome image, but the foreground is a bit distracting.. maybe moving the subject down in the frame (more sky less ground) would've been a stronger impact.

absoutely the best color choice you could have made (IMO) that mountain is a beauty that you must shoot a lot in different light - I know I would be :) Like the subtle gradient in the sky - well done

Nice moody shot, but I think the color tone was overdone (7).
