Heidi, I love the contrast of the blues and reds. I'm thinking you are having too much fun in southern Utah. It looks like you got some wonderful shots.

While there are technical issues with this image, you have caught such a moment of power and emotion. I love the wild eye look of the back horse. After the competition, I hope you are able to clone out the distracting wires and pole. It's a wonderful capture. 7

I find this shot interesting because of the mushroom columns. Obviously, the lighting was hard to work with and so your shadow areas have little detail. Lightening them up would really add alot of punch. I'd also love to see the saturation and sharpness increased in the rocks. It's a strong beginning.

Interesting shot. I'm intrigued with the red bridge and colored water. The reflection of red in the water makes the picture for me. The leading line of the covered bridge is very powerful, but doesn't lead to much of interest. (Dodging and burning might help there, as well as with the vegetation on the banks. The same for the detail under the bridge.) Because it is so much brighter than the rest of the picture, I'm drawn to the sky, but find it week. Perhaps lightening up the rest of the shot could balance that out. It has interest.

Overall, I like this shot. The cliffs circle around and add interest. You have trees at different levels providing different values of green. The lighting was a bit tough to shoot and blew out the sky. This would be a great immage to post process, including some color to the sky, lightening sections of the cliffs, and increasing the saturationin areas of interest. I think it has strong possibilities.
