Thanks for comments. I'm a little surprised at the un-Reala like look of this image. I took a quick look around for the CD, but it's gone. Had no reason to keep it and wouldn't be at all impossible that it got dumped. If I did any PS manipulating, I don't remember it. As my post indicated, this was shot just as the sun was rising. The magenta/cyan tones in the sky/snow indicate the low light's passing through the atmosphere and toning the scene. This tiny cloud only has impact if it's a major element in the scene. The large unlit mountain would be completely unaffected and simply stand there brooding. Was just a parting shot to the day and a salute to one of my favorite places.
