This is superb. Lots of drama and a beautiful mix of warm and cool tones. Processing looks good to me.

This is really beautiful. Sometimes Nature provides us with atmospheric conditions that just make you gasp. This must've been quite a sight. The nuanced tones and colors here are remarkable. I think the darkness at the bottom of the frame works well for you as it gently pushes you into the brighter and brighter areas.

A Turner sunrise?

Navin,

This is fantastic! The GRAND view, the awesome reflection and the warm to cool transition of color is making for an awesome image. The glacier itself is almost dwarfed in the scene, but still plays an important role in the image and story.

No nits, not sure how this could be improved.

Sweet light and scene, Navin. The atmospherics with the clouds are fantastic as is the reflection in the water. Great work.

Very dramatic, Navin. Must have been incredible to be there in person to witness.

Great sky and reflection, and it contrasts nicely with the cool blue ice. Well done.

This is very unique, exotic I guess is a better word. Love it, Navin. Kinda makes me want to paddle out there for some closer reflection images of the glacier. Very, very nice.
