I like it - I can see why you like it. Do you like your new Tamron?
It is very beautiful as it is! You could lighten it a bit to see if that is what you have in mind, but the mystery may be gone.
I think it has a slight ethereal feel to it; like you're headed into another world where adventure awaits. I like it very much the way it is.

Go to lighting, select levels, select blue and reduce in the shadows. Then go to brightness/contrast and adjust the contrast. May help. mrbill
I took the above advice, which was very helpful, and did some additional things as well:
Exposure +.8
Contrast +92
Hue [in HSL], Blues to 54
Dehaze in effects to 72.
I like this image. It has a lot going for it. I'm no good at PP, so I won't offer any suggestions, but it's definitely worth saving.

Hi Roder10. Thanks for looking! Right before we left for a trip this summer, I stumbled upon the Tamron (used, but like new) at my local camera shop, for a great price. The shot under discussion was taken with a funky old Quantaray that I got with my old D70s. The Tamron is like a different animal. Sharp very close to 300, so I usually pull it back just a little. The stabilization works well and is needed, as it does have some heft. In lower light, it sometimes hunts a bit for focus, but the "always- on" manual ring is nicely positioned. IMHO, for twice the money, I can't imagine I could have done better. Sorry for the long reply, but I assumed you wanted more than, " it's nice!" Thanks for the positive comment! Regards.

That is also my fear. Taken very near to sundown, and from a distance, some of the "haze" is atmospheric in nature and to me, does add an air of mystery. The same is true of the light: if I brighten it too much, it will be a "false" image, and I am going for reality here. I, however, am open to seeing what some of the better editors here can do. Thanks for looking!

Thank you, DragonsLady! From your comments, I feel you "get" the shot I had in mind. And yes, isn't every day an adventure? One I am happy to be on!

First, thanks for taking time to consider this image. I appreciate what you have done that gives the image more "immediacy." Willard also sent me a rendition of his advice for the shot. To my eye, your edit has a bit more blue that combines to give the image a slightly "pinkish" tone to the rocks on the left? Does that make sense? That notwithstanding, I certainly appreciate your vision and thank you for showing me another example of what powerful software we all have at our disposal!
