Taken over the weekend, the forecast wasnt favourable with clear sky until after sunset with high clouds approaching inland.
Figured we take a chance and hope streaks of clouds would approach inland before the expected forecast.
Hope you like it
It's an appealing image, Danny, with many beautiful and striking elements in a good composition. The backlighting makes the foreground and the pinnacles themselves a bit dark, so the boulders' contours and that gorgeous green moss are a little understated for my taste (and I like understatement!). Of course, you may want the darker, brooding feel.
I'd have been tempted to brighten them, a bit like this:
Yes, I was wondering where some of your exotic locations are, Danny - until I looked up your portfolio and realised that some, like this, are in my own back yard! I'll have to go back to PI some day. Shot a million sunrises behind Pyramid Rock (Feb & Nov) from the cliff above the penguin parade. Back in Kodachrome days.

thanks mate! Much appreciated! Noticed you are based in Melbourne too!

Beautiful shot, I really dig the foreground elements. I just wish the mountains were in focus. Ever consider focus stacking?
Nice shot! Great composition! I agree with Chris in brightening the foreground.
