I like this one better. The tighter comp puts more emphasis on the clouds and the foreground is pretty good too.

Truly is a view from heaven. The sharp gradient from orange to blue is kind of odd though or at least the placement of it.

Thanks for the inputs!

@Abdullaziz: Not so cold man, lets say +/- 30F

@Richard: The gradient is completely natural, the sun was rising 10 degrees to the right side of the frame and partially covered by a cloud. It´s a single shot, no blending.

This is such an awesome shot. I really like the atmosphere and the shutter speed you used to just barely show the motion of the clouds.

Great image!
Did you experiment with any long exposures (using a dark ND)?

Incredible shot, Ricardo! I love the colors, and the slight movement of the clouds gives a unique feel to the scene.

what a fantastic cloud formation. I like the comp with its foreground, the first layer of clouds/fog and then the mountains and another cloud formation and finally the horizon and the wonderful colored sky.
Well done. Like this one even more than your first post of this location.
