Such surreal landscape. Nice colours, but seems to have a glow or softness to it that I'm not sure I like that much.

Nicely composed with that line leading into the picture/distance. Love the color.

i like the choice of composition to have the road drive our eyes into the scene

Beautiful scene and very nice composition. It could do with a bit of sharpening though to bring out some more detail imo.

The comp works great and this looks liek a road to be travelled over and over. Beautifull rocks but the processing just a tad over the top for me 7

for me this is to processed with the HDR...I would have scored this much higher if it wasn't so heavy handed...mind you I'm not saying it's not a good shot...just to much for me...

I sense some HDR work here, which if that is the case is fairly well controlled, but for me, while not quite there yet, is approaching the overdone.

It's really interesting scenery, the way you have done it just makes it look hot! For some reason I also get the impression that this is a miniature scene, no idea why!

Southwestern US? One of my favorite parts of the world. Great texture in the rocks.
