I love the effect of the long exposure on the sky/clouds, especially when mixed with the color. This image has a a different yet very appealing perspective. TFS

I like the low-down perspective here. Is the white resin salt or snow?
Why the high ISO? Where you shooting handheld?
The background mountains look a bit out-of-focus, strange for a TS-E at f16?

I had the camera on tripod. The exposure was 30 sec. But I used such a high ISO, due to the insufficient light. This was shot 30 minutes after sunset, to be able to capture the colorful cast on the clouds.
Yes, this is salt. I also felt some softness in the mountains, I think I just forgot to tighten the shift knob in the Lens, so it shifted a little . I have other images from the same day, I will try to check if they have the same issue. Thanks.
