I like this.
I think I would have cropped some of the bottom off tho', nearer to the bigger rocks, about where the orange flare dot is.

Great shot, I wouldn't have picked up on cropping the bottom but agree now it's been pointed out.
Even better I think would have been to get closer to the rocks to make them a foreground feature with more impact.
Still better than anything I've ever managed tho.

Great shot Steve, I love the effect of the tobacco filter ( never used filters except for polariser)and the scene...I agree with the above about the foreground, I too would have cropped most of the plain ground at the bottom of the shot up to near the big rocks as I feel it doesn't add to the shot....
Still I like it.
