Just another shot from my favorite mountains near my home.
PP: Just Advanced editing on this one. I selected the sky and adjusted its contrasts, then the lower portion and adjusted it. I did some cleaning with NeatImage. Cropped, resized, and sharpened.

Wow! I'd be happier if the blue weren't so extreme mid-right edge, and if you'd brought up the clouds a bit on the left, but this is very striking. I wonder if more people are gonna like or dislike the perfect centering of the moon? Works for me :-)
I love the raking light on the mountain. This image has good color, contrast and depth. The moon could have better placement and enlarged. Spectaclular scene.
