This image was taken way up in the Southern Colorado Rockies, about 11,500 ft. I'm standing on a 4x4 path shelf road, with about 3 feet on either side of the jeep. One straight up, the other straight down...get's the adrenaline flowing..
That's beside the point, but this was our first time doing serious off-roading, and it was very cool, if not unnerving.
I wanted to preserve the sunlight and shadow quality of the scene, and also provide some sense of depth to the image, more than the rather 2D quality of the original image. I used Simplify as a base, then multiple layers of differing contrast, light balancing and color work. ...no special filters here, just regular photoshop tools. Would appreciate you letting me know if it worked! I'm not very experienced or consistent at landscape work, so any feedback on composition and such would be helpful.

I won't try it, as that is not my forte, but congrads on surviving the ride!
