Thoughts on this image?
This was from Saturday morning in Rocky Mountain National Park. It turned out to be quite the interesting sunrise. As always I would appreciate any helpful C&C.

I like it. The yellows seem a bit saturated and maybe to dark to me, but I'm beginning to suspect this monitor has issues so that may not be the case.

Jeremy's got it right on the sky. Too saturated, as are the darkest blues of the haze nearest to you. But geez, with just a little bit of help, this image is rockin'!

Hi Koveh! Looks like a great image but could use a bit of work. The top half seems to be too dark, particularly the clouds. As others have mentioned the color needs some adjustment to saturation and hue as well. The other thing I'm seeing is that the bottom half, particularly the hills seem to have been lightened too much. It looks like there is fog down there but I'm guessing that is really due to some areas being lightened too much. The composition looks good though. Make some adjustments and you'll have a great image. Post it again once you've made your changes.
