•  Comment Too late for this nomination, but King of Hearts, I suggested a crop on the image page. I don't think very bottom rocks are adding anything and cropping better exploits the light streak of rock running towards the bottom right. I think the lighting is a little flat and perhaps a slightly different time of day would emphasise the undulations more (compared to other images I Googled). Also this is a telephoto shot (80mm) whereas a wider view shows plenty interesting rocks out of frame to the left/bottom that could make for a more interesting composition. I think it always worth considering 16:9 for landscapes as it can be much more dynamic that 3:2. -- Colin (talk) 16:52, 16 September 2016 (UTC)

  You're right about the lighting. I also shot wider images, but I chose this because 1) this is the most colorful part of the landscape, enabling it to overcome the flat lighting; and 2) we already have plenty of wide FPs of Zabriskie Point, so I wanted to do something different. --King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 03:28, 17 September 2016 (UTC)
