It was going to be a storm while I was shoting this picture. Hope you'd like it.
PP: I just darken the backround alittle bit.

Hello Mitra

I thought I would try to do something with your photo.

In photoshop:
1) I duplicated twice the layer with your photo.
2) Top layer - changed blending mode into 'soft light',
3) middle layer - blured with 'gaussian blur' radius 7.5px
4) Top layer - sharpened with 'unsharp mask' radius 8px, I don't remember precentage, but I observed the changes on screen
5) On the top - added new 'adjustement layer' - 'curves', with points (in/out): 5/0, 165/208, 255/255
6) then - flattened image and sharpened with 'unsharp mask' 87%, 0.4px 2L.
7) cropped differently - I thought it would be better to achieve more consequent line from top-left into right-down. I wanted to put an accent on the pass of mountains, on the right side. That's why I removed the falling part of mountain of the left side.

Best regards

Piotr
