Taken in Keystone, CO this summer.
Would appreciate your comments! Still learning!
Thanks!

Nicely done. Did you use a tripod and/or neutral density filter? Since you asked for comments, my suggestions would be to play with the curves and levels to get some more contrast, and also the foliage looks a little soft. Look forward to seeing more!

Hi Chris!
Thanks! I used my standard Skylight filter and actually set my camera on a big boulder. Didn't have my tripod with me.

just a quick edit to show you what I mean (let me know if you want me to take it down). maybe a bit overdone, but you get the idea. quality's not great because I just snagged the low res photo from your post.

Chris,
I see what you mean! I thought that it could be lightened up a little more to the right under the evergreen tree. That in combination with your edit would really look correct for lighting and contrast.
