Hey Dale,
I've never been there in the summer!!! This is very nicely composed with the flowers leading the viewer through the frame. I do think you may want to lessen the brightness and increase some of the contrasts.....making the greens darker a bit and adding some extra depth to the FG area. Still a very nice image all around.
The lower contrast version works much better. I like the strong triangular lines in the image adding great depth as it draws the eye from the FG flowers to the BG peaks and sky. Well done.
