editing attempt

This was my first attempt at editing using lightroom 5. I first used whatever the program thought that the picture should look like and then did a little manipulation of my own. This picture is of the Grand Tetons from a trip during Fall break 2012. I really wanted to bring out the sunset between the peaks and focused a lot on that area. Unfortunately, my camera is not of very high quality. Thus, the photo is not as good if it was a better more expensive equipment. For example, it is very noisy and grainy regardless of my attempts to minimize it.
