Thank you for your feedbacks on my previous image, especially on my workflow with my new monitor.
I took this at sunrise during a very cold morning on the mountains. I started with an idea in mind given the weather conditions and as (almost) always the nature surprised me unpredictably. Metaphorically speaking, I was attracted by the idea the we (trees) often look down and we are not able to see good things happening above (close to) us (the colored cloud). But maybe I am over-interpreting :)
Critiques and comments always welcomed and appreciated.

Very ethereal and painterly Mattia. I just love the soft pastel colors.

The pink land mixing into the pink clouds is great, Mattia. The blue sky at the top sets off all of the pink very well. It's a fine, artistic view. I think you've also got a winner if you crop out the blue sky.

Mattia, I'm really enjoying this image and your vision. The pastel colors are wonderful and what a mood you captured. Very nice just as it is and it also works great with the upper half cropped off. Nice work!

I am really enjoying this, Mattia. There is a wonderful peaceful mood here. The color looks great, and the contrast is especially nice. Well done!

That is not what I thought it was when I saw the thumbnail! Love the pastel colors in this, and the definition in the snow around the trees....but yes, I think you are maybe over-thinking this one. cool

I think the sense of space and grandeur in this is really nice. Nice one.

I like Nick's half page crop suggestion. Or even a crop just below the upper pink clouds. The bright top with the blue and the pink is drawing attention away from the main focus. There is some lovely light in the bottom half of image that gets largely ignored. Nick's suggestion generates a stronger comp and a lovely image in shades of pink light.

Great dreamy mood and as Eva said, very painterly. No suggestions here, just very much enjoying the image.

Mattia, Love this image. The colors an composition are great. Love the "softness". Makes me feel I'm floating in those clouds!
Keep up the good work. Ry

Keep up the good work. Ry
