Daniel, you show me the expanse of the scene nicely, with the flowers in the near leading into the depth. The larger version is a must, it reveals delightful and rich details in the foreground and provides a more favorable midtone contrast in my opinion.

The two roads are a bit prominent, but that is only a minor matter for me.

I really like the feeling of the depth of this image. I am just drawn into it. The colors and comp are very good also.

Nice scene, well-managed light. Would maybe close the car headlights on the highway as they're pretty easy to spot.

Very compelling image!
Lovely yellow and blue flowers that stand out well against the green. Nice lake and sunset -
like this a lot!

Is this this year's bloom? This is a fun place to shoot from, but I was too early to find good balsamroot. I'd prefer a bit more detail in the distant hills, but as is this conveys the dark of dawn well.

Great composition and processing. I think you could bump the saturation up a little, especially in the yellows. I agree with John about opening up the shadows a little in the distance. Sweet shot Daniel!
