In my defense
The mountain was really hazy in the original, and I "popped" it a bit, but I didn't want to pop it too much because then I thought that it was unrealistic. However, I do like Mark's definition between the mount and the clouds.
I really like the Snake and the way it sort of leads the eye to the mount, so I disagree with Rob on that point. The contrast between the serene river and the rest of the active shot, I think, is worth it.
