Ai Li, I do agree with you completely. But ... First problem: although you can't see here, there's a serious amount of camera shake, resulting (due to the IS lens) in effectively a double exposure. I wanted to zoom more but I knew I just wouldn't get a usable shot. And with the blur, I can't crop tighter! Second problem: on the left, the sky is light than the ground. But on the right, parts of the ground are lighter than the sky. As a result, pushing the contrast does some really weird things to the shot.

A moody shot. Would be perfect if a tighter composition and higher contrast. Just my view :-)
