Very good composition: I like that the hill is on one side and the road with a tiny car - on the other side of the picture - very well balanced. I can already smell the dust of the road... Well done

Nice photo. Years ago a friend gave me a photo of the same rock formation in Black and white. I love the colors in this. It would have been nice if the sky was bluer. Nice job.

A very nice shot with fine composition and beautiful colors. The car provides a bit of scale which mostly shows that he has a long way to go.

It is an impressive landscape you have pictured here, and I am glad a car is included to show how small it looks compared to the surroundings. The road also work as a perfect leading line bringing the viewer into the composition.

Your photo is also pin sharp all the way through, and the textures of the rocks are so well brought out. Even if the exposure is working for the landscape, I think the sky is a bit blown out, and I wonder if it had been an idea to lower the exposure a bit and then increase the contrast. You might bring a bit more life into the sky this way.

The framing of the photo is perfect and the big rock formation is well placed off to the right. A truly lovely and well taken photo, and with a very good DOF.

excellent focus and depth of field, but I think the colors and contrast need some pop up

good leading of the viewer eyes with the path

thanks for sharing

A genuine picture with natural color range and nice overview - your angel to the rock formation is well chosen - I love the way you have composed this image with the yellow way ending in nowhere and the red part, I also love the white sky as it forms a nice natural relieve of the mountain

excellent focus, genuinely sharp and soft in contrast

you picture is well balanced and for sure a beautiful landscape picture, thanks for sharing
