This certainly fits my original thoughts on this theme with bright sunlight on a white subject. The peak "peaks through" very well here, Gary. I also like the tight view of the valley for some added depth and that wash of sunlight peaking through on the left.

Unusual/interesting comp Gary, when you open the LP it's as if you've just stepped into the scene..
I especially like the use of light & shadow here, has an excellent 3D feel

Love the light and the use of the shadow on the ridge to the right, off-center placement of the subject peak, the atmospheric cloud circling the peak (just enough on the right side to show that). It all works, and I agree with Howard that the larger image is a must-see.

Lovely bluish gray tones accompanying the whites and scattered blacks make for a lovely ishot, Gary. Nice, serene mood to this image
