 9 Image HDR merged and tonemapped with Photomatix. Polished with Topaz Detail afterwards. I had to scramble up a cliff to get this shot. I actually left my tent in the photo since it's so small in the downsized version. This was a really fun backpacking trip and I'm pretty happy with this result.

Dramatic looking. Reminds me of Middle earth from Tolkiens "Lord Of The Rings"

The clouds on this just seem to be hanging in mid air as though they have a life of their own. Kind of a 3D look. Nicely done!
