Went hiking this weekend with my wife in Arizona. Took my camera and here is one of the shots I took. What do ya'll think? Any and all critique is welcomed.

The photo could use more depth. The rocks on the front and the mountains in the back are both sharp. When one was unsharp the photo wouldn't look so flat.

But I like the shapes of the rocks .

i agree with eon. it's a very nice photo but could be better with a little more depth and maybe some more contrast. but it's a beautiful view!

I see nothing wrong with the depth, and there is VERY nice use of positive/negative space.

The one thing I do find distracting is the foliage in lower right corner. But I'm guessing you couldn't have got much closer and still captured the 'looking thru a keyhole' feeling.

And a minor opinion.....this one just screams out to be converted to B&W.
