Julien,
Good shot, using the jeep tracks to lead us into this scene has worked well I think, and what a scene we are lead to! This amazing backdrop of sculpted rock which you've captured in good detail, exposure and with patterns of shifting light.
Yes, I think this is a good shot and I can't imagine we no-one else has spotted it!
Regards
colin

Hello Julien. I agree with the comments of Colin, except that I think the shadow on the nearer rocks on the right is too dark and all the details have been lost. The contrast between them and the background mountains is too great. Also, with this shot I think you could crop some of the sky at the top by about 30%, placing the horizon about 1/3 from the top edge. But the photo is very well composed and the scene is a marvellous one. The natural colours are well presented here. Good work.
Regards,
Andrew

Olá Julien!
Fantastic place you show us here. It seems more like a "mars valley". Great colors and definition.
Congratulations and thanks for sharing,
Ana
