Great photo of a great place - congrats. Any chance of knowing what camera?

The photo was taken with a Canon EOS60D. However, in my opinion the type of camera is not so much important for this type of photos - the hard thing was rather to withstand the cold wind at the viewpoint until the the point when the light conditions were good ;-)
