I hiked here four times until I found decent lighting conditions. The cloud cover eliminated the harshness of the shadows I got with earlier attempts. Taking this took me out of my comfort zone. I am not crazy about heights, so getting close enough to the edge to take this photo was scary for me. A fall would have been certain death! I honestly don't know how some people just walk up to the very edge! I would be petrified...

WOuld have like to have seen the highlights pulled back in the sky to give some more detail. Otherwise nice restraint in the processing.

Beautiful place and beautiful colours. I like the processing of this image, does seem quite natural, not overcooked. Well done!
