Thanks much Olaf and Trav :-) Man it is frustrating not being able to retouch anything! Still, I expect a bump in ISO and bringing along my off-shoe flash cord among other things could have helped this image in similar ways to what post processing would do.

Yes, I like it also, background is....painterly, foreground not so much....yet, as it stands with no PP, a very successful and remarkable image. Traveller

I like the tonal balance between the sky and the foreground. Nice, rich colors too!
