What's so nice about this scene is that there is interest and beauty throughout the frame, from the rocky foreground reflecting the dawn light through the near mountains, valley and lake in the center to the distant mountains with the early morning light in the sky behind them. Just gorgeous, Ken. Good luck on your favorite. #11192916
