Dawn at Dante's View, Death Valley—Canon DSLR

Way back in January, I took an impromptu trip up to Death Valley with one of my good friends. Seven hours later we arrived at Dante's View. We were greeted just in time for a phenomenal moonset and sunrise. Man was it chilly up there. I primarily used a Canon 40D and 17-40L. No tripod. No special HDR software, just Lightroom and some curve layers in PS5. Any questions or criticism is welcome. Thanks!
