Oh my goodness what a beautiful shot. This is everything a good landscape photo can be. I understand the fear that settles over you when you're hiking up a mountain and see a storm approaching, but I'm glad you took a moment to take this gorgeous photo.

Very nice - Looks like a tad too much dodging on the tree on the left.
