Love the dappled light and all the layers. A great scene for sure. I would try to tone down the foreground and fix the line of darks lights that is almost in the center. I like the contrast of golds and blues in the back. Must have been awesome in person.
Paul and Robert, thanks for your expert input! I tried a quick set of curves and layer masks to tone down the foreground as suggested, but I'll have to go back to the raws to redo this one when I get more time.
Hey John,
Have to agree with all the above......very nice layering of the mountains........and while some may wish for more sky......I feel the stars are the mountains and different textures. I like the pop of the first post......so just a few tweaks will really make it shine. Very nicely composed!
