Darker shading of the sky and smudged the rocks viewed from afar as suggested by a friend to create better depth of field.

I love the field of depth you created there!! It is always my intention to create this as well :) Very, very nice details on each little spot of your picture. I can barely imagine how much effort you made! This is a masterpiece!
