Hard choices - there are so many I like that most probably wouldn't, but here's a couple...

( All were captured with a 5Dmiii and a 16-35 2.8ii )

All are superb. #s 2 and 4 are my favs. Nice work.

Are you using Topaz Labs Denoise? I'm seeing a *ton* of softness and strange artifacts that I've seen mostly from TL Denoise...

Wonderful landscapes. Great shots. I especially like number 5. The view, the composition and the colors!

Thank you Sir Candyman - this is one of my favorite Yosemite Valley images! I actually told the wife I wanted to go down there and do a Gary Hart workshop but she convinced me to go on our own. This was the last shot of the trip, stopped the car as wee were heading out... Glad I did!

Take a look at these 100% crops. Theres definitely some sort of denoise processing going on here.

 

[CurtL5]

The star photo was shot at ISO 4000 which did produce some notable noise.

The Yosemite Valley image was not, but in both cases, I used a combination of Lightroom and PS to clean things up and both are markedly reduced in size and quality - 32mB RAW images, saved down to a 15mB JPEG, saved down to a 2mB JPEG for sharing purposes.

Somewhere along the way, I'm not surprised in the least that you're finding things. I would never crop the shared file to 100% anyway, so I'm not too worried about dissecting quality...

Have you seen Peter Lik's shots of this tree?

I have. I saw his a couple of years ago and have wanted to get a picture for myself since then. Unlike what seems to be a lot of people (if not a lot, I guess it's the vocal minority) on this forum, I think the majority of his work is awesome. He has a few of this tree and my favorite is actually the one where the tree canopy is green. I forget the name though.

That photo may be called "Inner Peace".

You are right, the one I was thinking of is "Inner Peace"

I went to Antelope Canyon in Arizona about 2 weeks ago. I finally got around to processing some of the photos. Here is one I liked a lot:
