AWESOME Natural ART work WELL DONE!!!!!!!!!!

Holy smokes! This is an amazing shot! Your mountains are spectacular, and what a sky!! Your hand at HDR is becoming masterful, my friend.

super image Mel, love it.
Rich.

Looks almost like a painting Mel, the way that the foreground has come out as it has with those oranges around the rocks. The sky is magnificent as it swirls around the mountain tops and the sprinkling of light is more gorgeous than the sprinkling of snow on them too.

The color and detail in this one are wonderful. The line of the rocks and clouds really focus the attention on the mountains.

this is so wonderously epic and fantastic looking it leaves me flat-out fucking flabbergasted.

Very beautiful!

fantastic!

amazing view and photography

Beautriful contrast and compo !!

Amazing scenery and photography, Mel! Your talent is endless!

Wow Mel, how has this one escaped me in the past. This is a truly stunning shot.
Great HDR.

Knowing where to stop is part of knowing where to go. You apparently got it all right with (at least) this shot as proof!
