The mystical Turtle Mountain is cloaked with ethereal clouds as the first light of day illuminates the peaks over the sleepy valley below.

Nice contrasts in this Dean and that makes it fairly dramatic. Nice bold shot.

Dramatic, almost looks like a long wavelength IR shot.

Thanks E.J.! It was heavily polarized so the sky was easy to darken. Lots of D+B too!
