Hi Geof, The shaded areas really highlight the subject and create a great sense of depth and scale. I enjoy many of your landscapes but this one in particular. Cheers, Steve

Hi Geof.
Great tight crop for an amazingly beautiful landscape. I like the way you have played with the light conditions to define very contrasted compartments that add to the good depth and relief. The composition is nice and perfectly balanced.
