Taken in morning of course as the sun was peaking over the mountain ridge. I go this route every morning and love seeing the sun rising over the Cascade foothills.
Cropped, unmasked, dodged and burned, saturated to a 3 level. Some cloaning (I'm still trying to learn this) step.
Sized for web. I know it's a little bit over-burned on the sun, but I still liked seeing the rays.

Lovely shot. I think perhaps the chunk of road at the bottom of the photo detracts slightly, although the shafts of light and colours of the leaves are both fantastic.
7: I like this a lot even though there are a few things that bug me (1) the power line running through the tree (2) the brightness of the road (3) the building at the right. Overall this is nice though
