Taken 6.25am, from the top of a hill looking south. There was a nice fog down low to the ground, in the distance the tops of the trees were just visible, waited for the sun to rise, and tried to get the first rays on the trees , as it rose above the hills.

I've rated 303 images so far in this free study. Yours is one of my top 5.The light and the colors are great. That fog covering trees and fields in the background leads they eye into the foreground to the area getting the first rays. Really like this.
Amazing color pallette here, so richly colored and looks like it from another planet, fantastic light, and this is just an awesome scene......
Truely breathtaking image, and really hope it does well.....
I just "LOVE" it. Definately one of my top picks for this challenge.
What a serene scene. I really love blue tones in a photo like this. I also like how you can see the morning light alpenglow on the trees. Very pretty!!!
Now, this picture confuses me. It wow's me then I think wait a minute what's going on here. Regardless I like it and it's unique. A little grainy, no defined focus point (seems a tad out of focus) but it adds to the photo. (7)
