Sunrise
by Jeremy Kessler
I just got done reprocessing this one from a while back. Was a fun backpacking trip. I had planned to shoot from somewhere else but when i stumbled across this scene my mind was quickly changed.
Edit: Sorry for the confusion on the animals, I was just sort of curious if people would notice them, they are a mother moose and a calf, not horses. They show up and are presented much nicer in a higher res file.

Watch out for the sloping tree line in the mid ground. It darkens in color as you go up the mountain. This probably happened due to dodging/processing the trees in the foreground. Also care on the tips of some of those foreground trees, I believe they need uniform luminosity which might require dodging them at 100% magnification while watching out for the "splash"area that lightens up around them as you dodge. I might crop the right hand side a tad because of the notch near the edge.
The moose is placed well. The composition is nice.
I'm still working on getting my web version to look correct, I've done quite a bit of reading but still can't get things on here looking quite like they do in PS.
Varina, thats a Mother moose and her calf, I thought I'd see if anyone noticed them.

I echo Dean's and Floris's comments. The moose really adds a lot to this scene. A slight crop on the right side would help. I hope all is well.

What a beautiful mountain landscape and what a great nature story you've come upon and captured. Sure, the critters(is a moose a critter?) are small, but they add so much to the scene. I would agree with a slight crop on the left and also some overall contrast. This will be a killer image.
