    You're welcome.

    I just like the overall SSE visual effect. The intersection of the many forms at the base is intriguing.

    I agree that the mountain looks "menacing." Nothing as explicit as ghosts projected on a castle or a talking skull hanging above your boat. Just... vaguely creepy. Nothing you can definitely point to. It's beautiful in its simplicity and contrast. But inhospitable and somehow sinister.

    <<It looks like a faux mountain>>

    I think it looks like a fake mountain if you expect all mountains to look "Sound of Music"/Matterhorn. But not all mountains are edelweis- and pine-covered -- or "jungle" or "American Southwest". For me, this one -- though very stark looking at first -- is within my imagination's realm of "real" mountains.

    Turns out I had some earlier nightshots from those locations, and actually found them. Try these.

    SSE looks quite lovely, too - I like the closeups like that (and, of course, the total lack of wand).
