I love trees, but with light and color like that, maybe the mountain should have been the star.

I am an artist and was taken by the beauty of this photo. The colours and vastness remind me of the pilbara and kimberly areas of Australia.
I was wondering if you would be kind enough to grant me permission to paint this photo.

Have you played around with split toning? It can make quite a difference to images.
