Overprocessed: oversharpened, lack of detail, unnatural colors (clipping yellow cloud is white and natural on the first version), very nice composition though. --Ivar (talk) 17:16, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- The previous version missed imho detail, contrast and clarity. For me in this scenery two aspects are important: The glowing peaks of the Canyon and the structure of the Canyon. Both come out well here and as far as I rember match the situation on location better than the previous one. --Tuxyso (talk) 07:00, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Support Good composition. (I don't think that the colors are unnatural.)--XRay ^talk 19:39, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Good compo but the yellow burned cloud is a problem for me. --Christian Ferrer (talk) 06:35, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- The clouds are not overexposed (take a look on the histogram and RGB values there, I could recover some details from the RAW in this verison). The clouds had been very bright and satuared - imho it is no good idea to artifically darken and desaturate these areas. If you have dramatic light with very bright and glowing spots I plead for preserving this ligting situation. --Tuxyso (talk) 07:00, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It's more the color yellow of the cloud than the exposition the problem, the work that you have done for the entire image is not bad except for the cloud witch seem burning like a lamp. And maybe the cloud is not overexposed but it look like on the last version --Christian Ferrer (talk) 11:27, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the clarification. I will take a closer look in the evening, at the moment it looks OK to me. --Tuxyso (talk) 12:02, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Done I've moderately considered Ivar's and Christian's observations. Iifar: You cannot expect a 100% crisp image because there was some foggy air inside the Canyon which make the mood special here. But I've moderately decrased detail contrast and worked on sharpening problems at the Colorado river. Christian, I reduced some orange colors on the bright clouds - imho slightly better than before. --Tuxyso (talk) 20:37, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks to have tried but honestly, more I look at it more I prefer first version, maybe first version need some improvement, a little bit of contrast and clarity but not too much. --Christian Ferrer (talk) 05:58, 19 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with Christian. First version needed imo only a small correction, this is too much for my taste. --Ivar (talk) 07:09, 19 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks both of you for your assessments. I stongly prefer the version at hand thus I decided to keep the photo as it is now. I look forward to further reviews. --Tuxyso (talk) 07:44, 19 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose The colors definitely appear over-saturated/over-processed and are looking un-natural. I don't have much opinion about the composition -- Dey.sandip (talk) 11:13, 19 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
