This is a very Ansel Adams shot, well done on capturing the feel!
Beautifully focused, with excellent dof and a good tonal range.
Very best wishes for the contest.

Getting long scale even contrast across the entire B&W frame is very difficult to capture. That is what set his stuff head and shoulders above everyone else.

The camera settings are well established and have produced a high resolution image of good contrast and excellent DOF.

This is an excellent entry for this contest, good luck ... Bob

Comment from nikman
A good looking image posted here into the competition! Your fine and classical composition offers us an enjoyable view of a good looking canyon. Textures, tones and detail are good. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Nicely done and good luck!

Certainly an awesome place to visit[have seen it countless times on tele over here] but not the same as being there,good dof in this i might have used a bit more foliage in the foreground but apart from that a good one for the contest...Brian
