Very cool. Nice leading in. Curious why that far rock seems to be in shadow.

This one is beautiful, too. I like your range of talents, from red-hot natural landscape to icey-cold cityscape (Student Parking}. Great work again, Jeff.
I like your hyperfocal technique, and I think the portrait orientation for these shots adds a lot more drama since one's eye has to travel a great distance near-to-far.
This would look really cool in B&W IMHO.

The 12mm lens has really enhanced this rock formation in giving you
the perspective you intended.
Great colours.

Wow factor to this! Love those wonderful lines and colors. Love the luminosity too.

Looks like you got farther into the area than we did. Was it blazing hot, or did you remember a hat and sunblock and 3 gallons of water per hour? :)
I, too, like the short lens effect, it pushes what might otherwise be a smallish feather out into the background. And the color, well, yep, that's how it looks. :)

Jeff, great DOF and color. Have you ever tried using the NIK Color Graded Grey Filter rotated so the lower part of the frame is slightly darker? I like the technique because it forces you to look into the frame. With this image, my eye stops at the bottom of the frame and never gets into the image.
