Hi Stuart, Nice layered mountains but the image appeared very dark and a bit dull.
I cropped the image from the top,left and bottom in order to accentuate the layered areas.
I brought up some detail in the foreground hill and saturated the sky a bit more.
Another possibility is to crop more off the top and eliminate the open area.
I did this fairly quickly but wanted to give you my thoughts...

Nice job Dave, you really strengthen the image.

Hey Stuart,
I was going to recommend a crop too but I might keep a touch more sky tahn Dave did......although tree on left had to go. I also like the way he brought out some more depth and colors. Nice use of the atmospheric layers to add dimension.....so tweaking them will only strengthen the image overall imp.
