not so... death Valley

great color

Nice colors!

thanks in advance

Like it, nice colors, but I think composition could be worked on a bit. I miss a clear line somehow. Did you consider cropping into portrait format, with the dark valley on the left as main that line?

Doesn't look like a polarizer was used on this which considering the sky values is surprising. It's not just the rich colors that make this an image begging for a framing, but the shapes and shadows, for me at least. I think this would look striking in BW also.

Very nice image. Polarizers are often over rated. A good lens does not need a polarizer to help a clear rich sky, which I think this was anyway. The polarizer has darkened the shadows and removed all detail, and it has suppressed the bright natural colours of the surface. I agree that the frame could be shortened from the right. The right edge is too harmonized in comparison to the activity of shadow and light throughout the rest of the image. Overall, a very good idea.
