About	This has been so cropped and curved and levels-changed that the specs are not helpful. The camera doesn't always capture what the eye can see (sometimes because of the photographer's ability, sometimes because of the miracle of the human eye), but this is what I recall seeing so I "fixed" it after the fact.

Hi Sue!

I really like your postcard like photo. You have framed it in a clever way and with almost just blue and gray colors it's a place that I just could sit and contemplate a while.

Is it morning or evening?

Regards!

Thank you, Lars, for taking the time to comment. This was evening; my husband was working hard setting up camp while I was "doing the artist thing" and trying to capture the light.
The original image did not have the horizon directly in the center and was compliant to the "Rule of Thirds" but if didn't seem to emphasize the subject of the layers of mountains as I liked. Can it be forgiven for cutting the image in half between light and dark? I know what the "Rule" is but I like to think of it as the "Really Strong Suggestion of Thirds" and decided to break the "Rule".
Cheers!
