Huangshan, China
What a sight. As I gazed up at the majestic Mt. Huangshan, I felt like I was part of some incredible Middle-earth fantasy. My eyes widened with the realization that this was not a dream, but an actual landscape forged by the powers of nature. Just look at it. It is like the most perfect model, carefully and painstakingly constructed over the course of millions of years by the most skilled of craftsmen. A hazy fog swirled about the rocky structure adding so much depth and intrigue to the background. Meanwhile, the closer of the peaks remained perfectly free of mist, creating the illusion of two worlds colliding into one vision. There was no time for me to waste – I needed to capture this moment before the scene disappeared in front of my eyes. The result is a dream – one that I relive every time I look at it. This is my one and only shot from this area. I was lucky to see 10 feet in front of me for the 3 days I was perched up there.

Abigail ★★★★★

Huangshan is one of those rare places where the photos don't do it justice—the sea of clouds rolling between those peaks at sunrise left me speechless. The granite formations really do look like something out of a fantasy novel, and I couldn't stop staring.

David ★★★★★

Those granite peaks jutting out of the mist honestly look photoshopped, but the way the light hit the ridgeline at dusk made it all feel real. I've seen a lot of mountain posters, but this one has a depth that pulls you right in.

Eli ★★★★★

The sea of clouds rolling between those granite peaks made me forget I was standing on solid ground. The sunrise from the summit was worth every step of the climb up Huangshan.
