I think this is an absolutely stunning shot! Excellent use of aperture, perfectly balanced colors and perfect lighting. Great job!

Lovely colours and fine contrasts. Maybe if you would crop away most of the sky the emphasis would be even more on those phosphorizing lichens in the foreground? In any case, a eye catching image. Cheers, Mark.

Zsolt, I very much like the composition and lighting. I am not sure about the high saturation of the lichens, it just does not feel real. If it was your intention, OK, but I felt I had to tell you how I feel about the image.

Zsolt  - Those are some crazy rocks!  They do look a little too saturated, but maybe they are infact this way?  I agree with an earlier comment - the sky occupies too much room , unless for title drop or something.  The FG appears too bright in general.  Overall, looks like an intriguing landscape.

thank you for all the interesting comments, i really appreciate them. this is my favorite shot from the last months.

Mark Vincent and others about the sky- good suggestions. many people think this kind of sky is boring and not interesting. i dont agree, i love thick clouds, they result a special mood (and light). plus, i feel that the lines of composition in the foreground " require" more space beyond the mountains. it depends on what do you want: the whole picture is focusing to the foreground if you put less sky; but with more sky it is about the whole scenery.

Peter: you said it right. saturation is a bit more than natural, only a touch. and yes it is by intention. i simply feel more effective this way.

best regards.
