I spent the day doing one of my other hobbies down in Denver (FPV Racing). On the way back home, the light was kind of nice and I happened to have a new little camera with me to take a few quick photos.

    Nice! #3 is super and #1 is nice too.
    I wish the sun in #2 had not gotten as hot...it happens...then that would be my favorite.
    Cheers!

    Agree on #3 - nicely captures the austerity of the location.
    What differs on #3, is that it more conforms to the rule of composition that recommends avoiding a centered horizon (or apparent horizon)...
    The equal areas of sky and land in the other images jumped out at me... though, it might be something only photogs would consciously notice.

    I love the mood you've captured here. #3 is my favorite too and I think Eric is spot on in his reasoning.

    Cheers, Sara

    #2 is my favorite with composition and b/w conversion. Agree that the sun is really too blown. I wonder if attempting to crop it would make a difference? I like the last one too! Those darn rules.... I like to think of principles! These are all very fine scenes regardless.
