    The easiest thing to do is use the dodge and burn tools to give height or depth to them. You could also use the paintbrush to brush in black and white then set the layer to overlay. I like to draw ridgelines then blur and emboss them then put in a shadow that the taller peaks cast.

    Here, I did all three. If I had more time to use smaller brush tips then I could get more definition into the little ridges so as it is it's kind of soft looking and not as "craggy" as it could be...but you get the idea. I also added a brown color overlay.

    If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.
