We came over the mountain on Sunday afternoon after a peaceful day of picnic and cherrypicking.
This scene greeted us. I had to make a photo. I did my best to do justice to it and look forward to some comments and advice.
Crop, levels, contrast, saturation, brightness, sharpen.

The uncropped scene was in fact better, but I cropped it to bring out more detail in the small photo size that was are allowed.
