 After a 3am start to get to this spot in the glass house mountains, It started raining, hard and I thought my time was for naught but, after seeing some clearing light between shower storms I thought it was worth the punt. So I was hanging from a slippery rock face trying not to get my camera too wet, taking photos & having the time of my life, I'll put up some out takes when the time arrives as in this photo I clearly wasn't hanging of a mountain :)

Its taken almost at the top of the lookout and normally you can see, a big mountain in the BG, but in this shot you can just see the start of it due to the rain.

Hoping for a new top 2 for me. But it might be over looked.

Nice curving road scene. I like that you brought the clouds out in post. I like the general contrast here, though you can definitely see where you tried to dodge/burn a little. I like the textures.

Looks like too much blur used top right for me. Contrasr with the crispness of the bush / trees is too much.
