    Can't wait until its warm enough to actually go in. What were you doing that the ranger kicked you out lol. I got kicked out by the state police once while taking pictures of a bridge because it was getting dark.

    Theres a big flare spot in the center of the sky.

    The sky looks too flat, I think a more graduated sky would make for a more pleasing image, and maybe a more colorful and bright one at that. As it is the tones are all very dark and gloomy.

    I'm not sure about the silhouetted rocks, I think Id rather see a bit of detail there.

    I was shooting this with the sun in front of me(which explains the flare)...thus the overblown sky(flat) and silhouettes of rock formations....in my case, which attracted me to take the pic. I cannot really get details when I take pics against the sun .

    We were there to take pictures of models.....not seascapes and landscapes. The model got ticketed and my photographer friend too because they say we need a permit to shoot there. So we ended up taking pics of the seascape and sunset... oh well.

    I like the dark rocks and the right side cliff wall acting as a partial frame, but would clean up the sensor spots, tilted horizon, flare and the sky needs something
