It is two shots stitched together.

Cheers, It's a bit out of the usual for me, but I went out with a mate who does a lot of landscapes.

Were the two shots stitched together to increase the FOV, or one of the sky layered with the rocks? It might be cool to an extra exposure to get details in the rock formation in the foreground. All in all, an amazing shot! I love it.

Just stitched to increase the FOV, my 24-70 is quite wide enough :)
Not sure how a layered exposure would look, there is very little light on that side of the rocks, I don't think you get any colour or detail out of them.
