Gorgeous scene. The horse completes the picture very well although in a perfect world it should point the other way :)

Great light. The composition is superb, with the horse adding a lot to this wonderful scene.

What Kah Kit Yoong said.
Those clouds fit just perfectly in the scene.

I really like what you have captured here. I love how the sunrise is catching the tree tops making them appear to be a nice red color. That warmness of color carries over onto the forrest at the bottom of the mountains and onto the mountains themselves. For me the only thing would be that I would like the sky to be more of the red warm tones. Of course we can't control that, lol.

Great picture, I bet this would be fantastic on a 24 x 36 canvas wrap. :smile:

Very nice, Cezar. This pic is just perfect for the first light. I know that fleeting moment too well.

It was taken from highway 126 between Redmond and Sisters. Somewhere near Cloverdale, I think...

Absolutely gorgeous, Cezar!

Just a note - I've seen Elk on occasion in this same field early in the morning. Aaaah, mornings like this are why I love living here in central Oregon!
