what an amazing place, I would have desaturated the yellows abit ast the shadows on the mountain seem alittle too harsh, but you still did an excellent job getting tone in the entire image.

good title, the scene is obviously desolate and lets viewer just look around at all the details without being forced to think of something

too me this is peaceful not desolaate, however since the challenge is what does desolation to you, I am not letting this affect my vote for the challenge, but maybe others feel the same. the DoF on your shot is amazing and composition is great.

good capture and like the expression of the dog, and the literal use of the title is good. I would have maybe gone with a different duotone choice or black and white, it is alittle too purple. I dont feel desolation without the title, but since the description of the challenge is what it means to you I am not judging on those grounds, just my thoughts
