I like the serenity of this, John. The muted layers of color really carry this. Nice title, too.

John,
Very simple and subtle beauty. Nothing complicated here, just enjoyable to view.

John,
I like the mood - but is the halo along Mt. Tam's silhouette a sharpening/contrast defect or was it part of the original image - just my 2cents.

You got me, Michie. I hadn't noticed it. Unless there were clouds back there that glinted in the setting sun, it must be an artifact. I don't have the neg handy to check.

I like the minimilist feeling from this. Simple and elegant.
Would turn it into a longer landscape personally by cutting the top of the sky where the cloud becomes uniform and uninterresting. That would enhance the brish strokes the clouds make, altering slightly the original photo from being 5 layers stripes, to be a photo with a complex cloudscape.
