Spectacular set! My favorite is the first. That's everything a mountain photo should be, IMHO.

Maybe it's my screen, but they look too blue.

The first one is very impressive indeed.

I love the first photo. It has everything, fog/clouds, snow, razor-thin ridges, massive faces that define the Himalayan peaks.
The second photo is also well seen but Dhaulagiri is less imposing… The two remaining photo are different, showing a large scale landscape of mountainous terrain. These are spectacular but not in the same way as Mt. Dhaulagiri in the first photo.

Well done, Marc!

Yes but they were taken at 33,000 ft with all that UV through a 3/4" thick laminated window!
I lowered the green channel a bit and on some even desaturated them a bit
If I were to make a serious print I'd do more work getting the color/saturation just right
Limited choice of raw converters too, all I have for the camera is C1, Fuji XE1 and 18-55mm kit lens.
