 I wasn't going to enter this challenge, since I've only had the new camera for a few weeks, but I liked this one and figured I'd give it a shot. I liked the contrast of colors, lines and textures in this shot, I just wish I had some more experience with Photoshop or Gimp to make the colors pop the way they did on the mountain. I did some minor tuning in Picasa2 to increase the highlights so as to brighten it up a bit, exported it, resized in Irfanview to 700 wide. No cropping. WYSIWYG.
