My digital art from a canyon visit isn't catching eyes in showcases

I made some digital paintings after seeing the Grand Canyon last month. I put them up in a few online art spots, but they get little notice. How can I show the scale and colors better to draw people in? Maybe I need to tweak my image sizes or tags.

Focus on the light. The Grand Canyon at dawn has these deep shadows that make the ridges look huge. To show scale, try putting a tiny person or tree in the corner so folks see how big it is. For colors, bump up the contrast between the red rocks and the blue sky, it really grabs the eye. I remember once I tried to paint a sunset and messed up the hues, had to redo it three times. For online stuff, make sure your image is high res but not too big to load slow, and use tags like canyon art or landscape painting. Keep at it, sometimes it takes a few tries to get noticed.

Scale tips are key, but don't overdo the contrast or it looks fake.
