Wow! I totally love this composition and almost missed it. Here is how I see it:
First of all, in the lower left corner you have a water-washed rock with the brighter, dried surface emphasizing its form and serving as a nice, strong horizontal leading line into the frame.
So we have this relatively high-contrast juxtapostion of rounded shapes with wave shapes in the foreground, then a layer of foliage with its vertical lines and textures and green tones, and behind that, the tringular, jagged shapes of the mountain, golden against the contrasting blue sky and clouds; the clouds having a different texture, but one more reminescent of the water-washed rocks, appropriately. And I like the triangle formed by the foliage.
I love this as-is and am just glad I happened to find it today.

John,
Thanks for the comment, I feel the same about the composition. I just wish the clouds would have popped at the same time as the mountains... The sky was kind of hazy and messed with the sunset a bit. Thats what keeps us going back though:)
