I would have said lots of subtle color. It doesn't scream, but it speaks
softly something I like. And I like the composition. This version may
make it speak a bit too loud, but it does wake it up.

Man, that's desolate country. There's a lot of equally desolate looking
country in the US West, but it's not at such altitudes - and pretty much
nobody tries to eke out a living there.

Gotta love the way they add color to their lives with their clothing.

No, man! You got it! You just didn't quite finish the job. Try giving it
more contrast in the texture, just a little bit of sharpening and crop
off the boring, out of focus bit on the bottom. Woof, woof.

No quibbles. They got the color and texture for a great image. You may
think I do some sort of black magic in PS. The rainbow shot wires,
maybe, but these are pretty simple, straightforward stuff.
Feeble attempt - fah! I wish I could send you some of the enthusiasm I
find for your images.
Moose, perhaps your biggest fan?
