That's a nice improvement, Jim. In the original, the snow popped out as a major attraction to the eye. Here, it's a more natural part of the frame. Of course the brightness of the bottom part is the main improvement. Good job.
Still, this frame does give me a small sense of "dual subject" - nice sky and nice arch and each one competing with the other. Cropping the top of the sky (a shame, since it's so nice) puts the focus back on the arch and has the sky as a secondary feature. I don't see an easy way to crop the opposite way, making the sky the focal point. It's been a long time since I've been to Bryce, and your picture is making me want to return.
