 Used Dr Browns Place-A-Matic to load the same RAW image into photoshop with 2 different exposures on their own layer and then used a layer mask to combine.

Then Rotate slightly, Crop, levels, curves, hue/sat, dodge/burn, colour balance...bugger it, I think I used everything:)

Love the rock formation in the foreground and the perspective. Also like how the land formation in the background balances off the mass in the foreground. Neat scale, and neat composition. 7

The scene is beautiful. I'm not sure if that is the natural texture of the rock or if it has been oversharpended.

A little more density in a gradient from the bottom would contain thsi and force our eyes into the picture. Helluva scene :-)
