Oh this has a lot of potential in it. I can almost see the "diamond in the rough" in this image. I personally would have burned the clouds to bring out the "fluffyness" and texture, The mountain seems dark even on my bright screen. Great try ;)
Part of the fun of the challenge is comparing the photos to the work of the photographers they're paying tribute to. I can't figure out who that would be in this case. Sky is terrific. Ground is not. In advanced editing, you could have given us more light on the mountains without blowing the sky. That would have improved my reaction tot he photo I think.
