Beautiful scene Peter. Looks like you knew what you were doing here, great dof, sharpness, exposure. Did you have to use a graduated filter to manage the sky? This one would look great on a wall!

Breathtaking landscape of this jungle looking gorge. Love how the tree gives it both depth and the framing which appears to be what you were attempting to achieve. DOF is excellent as well.

Great view of the gorge.
Love the overhanging tree as it gives depth to this.

Magnificent view- very dramatic with the strong foreground trees leading to the zig-zag effect in the gorge. Well done!
