I like the gradations from dark, to medium, to light. Having that shimmering ribbon curve around through the dark foreground adds a wonderful contrast. Good luck to you.

Congratulations,
Amazing shot.I like the tranquility of the place you got the shot.it retrospects me the famous poem by William Wordsworth ,
Love had he found in huts the poor men lived,
His daily teachers were mountains and rills’
The silence that is amongst the starry sky ,….
Well done.
Best wishes

Nice peaceful scene. Great foreground interest,and like the way the mountains fade into the background,giving an abstract arty look. Perfect choice for mono.

Great shot, congrats!

I find it all the more powerful given the contrast to yesterday’s stunning image. That one small and vibrating color, this one huge, simple, and elemental. As different as the images are I think they would play well off of each other placed side by side.

What a marvelous image! The perfect lighting and expert exposure and composition make this simple landscape full of depth and meaning. Wouldn’t it be great to make a quilted wall-hanging like this?
Fantastic potd!!!
