The harsh lighting relecting off the top of the image, and casting harsh shaddows detracts. I also am struggling to really see what you want me to see, some rock waves but not a real lot to jump out and capture the eye. The title does not give any ideas either. Also, the shades of the browns really are not inspiring.

Nice formation in the rock. The shadow at the bottom of the frame is a little distracting

This looks like an interesting formation but the harsh lighting just kills the image. It is difficult to photograph in the dark--I assume this is a cave?

I have no idea what I am looking at, but it is definitely geologic :) One critique though... the shadows created by the flash take away from the photo a bit.

Not sure if it's a shadow or something else at the bottom but it is very distracting of the over all compositions.
