Nice light on the mountains and I like the dark sky Carey. It adds a nice mood to the scene. Nice detail in the larger version. Great job.

Really nice light , Carey. I also like the diagonals formed by the ridge shadow lines. There seems to be a halo around the top of the mountain, otherwise great shot.

The peak has a nice light contrasting with the bg as a storm moves in. All together your image gives a good sense of being there.Well done. Chet

That's a neat catch with the well lit peaks in front and the deep blue clouds behind. This makes for a very stark and foreboding, yet interesting image.
