Beautiful photo, very nicely exposed and composed, though I might crop in on the right a little bit to just beyond the rocks on the lower right.

Location
Kirkjufell in Iceland. It's located on the northern side of the Snaefellsness peninsula.Time
Close to sunset in October. Around 5-7pm.Lighting
I did go for the typical sunset, but clouds were rolling in, so I got this soft natural light instead.Equipment
I used my 5D mark3 and a 16-35mm f/2.8 lens. On a tripod with a 10-stop ND filter on top.Inspiration
Alot of pictures of Kirkjufell and I just had to go to this place myself! It's an absolutely stunning location.Editing
Yup, it's HDR made from three brackets, to balance the sky and ground. I did som colorcorrection and balancing of the rest of the clouds and cleaned up the picture for cars and other human-made stuff.In my camera bag
After I got my 5D mark3 stolen and the insurance didn't cover I'm right now looking for something new and cheap. My backup camera is my Sony a6000. Else I have my Canon glass: 16-35mm f/4, 70-200mm f/2.8 and for nightscapes I have my 20mm f/1.4 from Sigma.Feedback
Bring a good wide-angle, ND filters, tripod and keep returning until you get what you want.
