Rajan,

This one picture is indeed fun and also a surprise and a delight. The lit mountain range revealed beyond the dark foreground is unexpected and so well drawn here. The tall sky is just right to balance the low lying unusual layering of dark, light and dark rocks. Thanks for giving me a wonderful experience without paying the fare money!

Wow! Shades of Ansel!(hope you don't take offense for my reference) Love the way you have exposed this image and the detail that is present, nice work Rajan! Looks like you waited for the light but would like to know how you set up for this shot. Just lovely!

Larry,

Isn't saying an image is Ansel Adam-esque a compliment? What am I missing? :)

I set up the shoot just like I described in the link below. The location os the shot is seen in the very first photograph there -

Those are both wonderful images. I like the others in both series, you have a wonderful eye.

I love the moon in the second image you posted. It gives it a nice little counter point to the mountain range.
