Wow! That's a valley and then some! The scale is very impressive and I like the great range of habitats displayed. The shot seems a little pale - it could maybe do with a tweak of the contrast and saturation - but otherwise this is great work.
Absolutely superb view. Kevin has some fine suggestions. This is one that is worth every ounce of effort you can give it. Truly an enormous and beautiful scene :)

...another excellent shot Jon with sweeping lines again! you know how I love those lines! when you process your images in Photoshop, try moving the curved graph around and creating lighting and contrasts across the image to see how you can create drama in an image! Love this though and this is just a suggestion for trying out something new if you have not already tried it!

Though I spend most of my time at the ocean, I also enjoy going to the mountains and like sitting and looking at the beauty that you've just captured. Another well done Jon!!
I actually like the muted colours on this picture. I think they add to the sense of distance and space, and they let the clouds stand out and look more dramatic. Works welll for me,
