Early morning light sneaks in beneath the dissipating storm clouds from last nights' rain.

Spectacular clouds and light! The silhouette mountains in the foreground are very effective as a framing. A nice view to wake up to!

I love the silhouette in the foreground, an amazing graphical element. The clouds add quite a mood for me. On this uncalibrated monitor, the blues look a little heavy esp on the very top

I like the silhouette of the foreground hills, but the large area of it on the left unbalances the composition. I think if you crop from the left to eliminate the bright clouds, and large dark mass, you'd have it. I like the detail in the sky, but I feel that the blue is too heavy. I think that with some tweaking, this would be a fine image.

This is a fine look at the early morning light and breaking storm with a strong feeling of distance from the foreground silhouette. I too think the top of the sky is over saturated. Good to see you posting.

The silhouette mountains in the foreground are very effectiv. You used them well for framing the scene. Great light and fantastic clouds. The blues are a bit too strong on my monitor

Crazy light. I really like the comp and agree with some of the suggestions for making it better. Sure looks like Nevada.

Nancy Lea, A beautiful scene in some wonderful light. Those mid-ground mountains with that light look fantastic! I agree with Preston's crop suggestion to better balance the image. On my monitor the blue across the top looks does look a little to heavy as well. A really wonderful scene where a bit more work would be more than worthwhile.
