Wulingyuan Peaks, Zhangjiajzie, China

Hi guys,

Thought I would venture again into the lions den.

This photo was taken in late September. It was an overcast day so I feared the brief opportunity for a photo might be in vain. Even as we arrived at the peak in the late morning, it was drizzling and cloud-bound.
But, behold some breaks in the density of the cloud offered up a chance.

Shot at ISO 160, 1/80 sec at f7.1

Appreciate your comments

Victor

Victor, any change you can make it bigger?
It's too small for these old eyes...

Sorry about that.

I have to confess to a bit of contrast enhancement in PSE because of the atmospheric conditions.

I suspect that this image would also look very good in black and white. Nice job.

Very nice and I also think it would work in B&W.

Perhaps clone out that ?leaf in the top right corner. I find it distracting in an otherwise excellent work

As much as I'm against cloning stuff out, Greg is right on the money here.

And yes, this is a great image, of a wonderful landscape. Thank you

Thank you all for encouraging comments.

I have acted on Matt's suggestion and got rid of the leaf that annoyed Greg and Gary.

Here is a mono version:

And another mono image from the same landscape taken earlier before the fog lifted.
