No criticism at all. The choice of 50/50 sky and ground is perfect, and the contrast (infrared?) is spot on. Only wish the ground portion was ever slightly lighter.

Thanks for the feedback, David. I'll try lightening the ground a bit and see how it looks.

Ditto with David's response. Mesmerizing shot. Where in Arizona was this taken?
