    Hi Dan - Don summed up my thoughts exactly. Lovely light too, but the trees in the right center feel a bit too dark.

    TFS,

    Nice scene Dan...well composed, but I do also feel that it is a little dark overall...an easy fix for a nice comp!

    Hi Dan.
    Nice scene. I too feel it's too dark overall - did you use a polariser?
    I'd lift exposure overall by 1/3 to 2/3 of a stop.

    I like the composition and the reflection. The snow covered peak stands out very well with no signs of burnout. I can see that the right hand trees are in shade but I think that a slight lifting of exposure on the whole image would raise the image.
