The U.S. has so many fabulous national parks and Glacier is a photographer's paradise. This is my favorite image from the park.

Critiques and comments are very welcome and appreciated. Thanks for looking!

Wow this is a very strong image... great lines, perfect DOF and a dramatic sky with a hole punched right in the middle.

Hard to go wrong in Glacier. I've never been there but have seen MANY photos from that location.
Wonderful reflection. I wonder if brightening the left mountain might add anything?

Nice! The subtle warm light on the peaks beneath the ominous gray sky results in great tension. I wonder if a slightly different vantage point could have been chosen so that the reflection of the peak on the left would have been completely visible without impacting the reflection of the peak on the right.
