I regret one thing : the main subject is full centered.

Yes, in hindsight, it probably would have been stronger off-centre.
This one won't be to everyone's taste  in fact, I'm having second thoughts about the HDR myself.

Be sure it was constructive, Alex.
I hope It wasn't considered as rude.
I would have liked the man to be on the left side, walking to the sun.

It's nice to have discussions like this ,allways we can learn .Agree , I would like too the person more towards the left.
In that variant of composition , that I proposed ( I hope I didn't offended Alex ,just friendly talk between photographers ) there is some detail on the horison to the left ,tried to keep that.
It is also possible to crop in the other way , to have the man towards the left with full sun in the photo , but it is going to have some irrelevant horison on the right . But still , maibe it will be better , what do you think ?

No offence taken we all need criticism to improve, right? Not like any of my friends are interested in photography anyway personally, I like it with the sun on the right.
I'll try and find the original images soon - buried somewhere on my hard disk...

Yes, like this - adagio: the correct framing is the strongest - even if the concept of "correct" lies in a myriad of acceptable frame points,

I was to say this , here there is more movement present in the first one ,as it was just done in the last seconds. You can feel it .Probably that's why I chosed it first.
Big discussion here , I agree with you ,Moira , thank you for pointing this .
In the second , the movement isn't there , it's potential , it's going to happen .But the second framing is more powerful ,on the other hand ,because it involves all the energy of the future movement. A lot of philosophy here eh ?
Renato ,I like it too.
Olivier interesting the Square framing also .

On Ansel Adams' traces.
Surely you had wonderful moments during this trip, hadn't you ?

Wow, Gaeger, you've accomplished a real feat! Would you consider, not only compiling a set of photos showing the highlights of your trip, but also more logistical aspects, such as load out in terms of gear for your trip. What your mental checklist entailed. What you took, what you had to leave behind, what you left behind that you wish you would have taken, and what you took that ended up being wasted space. Did you take any film gear, or did you shoot exclusively digital?
I'm asking this because I'm interested in taking a road trip later this year on my bike, where I will be focused primarily on photography, and load-out will be critical because of the small amount of space I'll have available.
