Dawn of the Planet Alps by ArpanDas

For me this is one of the most difficult image I have ever processed. It was a blue hour shot and it had a ultra high dynamic range light condition. As it was shot from the top of the mountain and I captured a wide view different portion of the image had different light condition. I had to keep in mind many things. First of all the yellow glow of the sun in the sky only towards the right and more dark part towards the left and the upper portion. Then there was the most beautiful thing (which I liked most) is the glow of the sunrise on the snowy mountain. The fog just below the mountain was another important element. Then there comes the glow on the Church and also the fog and mist covering the area. Finally there was a lovely warm glow over the trees just infront of me. I wanted to keep all of these together and edited this image portion by portion. I used TONY KUYPER's LM Action to blend several images.
