Sunrise in Lundy Canyon
Each fall I do at least one early morning hike up Lundy Canyon. This is from last year when the colors were at their peak in the middle of October. The morning sky was better looking down the canyon than up toward the falls, but getting a good composition was harder. As I was waiting for the sun to rise, I watched a beaver in its pond on the lower right getting ready for another long Sierra winter.
Thanks and comments welcome.

Fabulous photo! My eye is drawn towards the bright part of the sky, so you might try darkening it a bit. Gorgeous as is though.

Just beautiful, Rudy. I have spent many years in Lundy canyon and have to say, this is one of the best images I've seen here.
Well done!!
