well, i'll admit it ... it's not actually a morning :-) we started to hike at 11am (sleeping 'till 10) and the photo was taken at 13:30 , so it felt like a morning to me and my kids :-)
sorry about that.
postprocessing was in lightroom, some hdr artificial way , contrast, saturation, sharpening and neat image for noise removing. nothing spectacular except the view.
thanks 2 all

lift the hills just a trifle higher in the image? or perhaps shrink the image to cut out the extra space, perhaps shorter than the plane, to make this image stronger, I think.
Superb early morning shot oozing tranquility and beauty. Lovely shades of gray in the hills combine magnificently with the yellows and oranges in the sky. 9
This reminds me of where I had my best vacation ever: Bristol, Tennessee. But, it's probably not. Anyway, the photo is awesome to me. A great Landscape. 10
Slowly the sun arises and touches the first of the hills, then moves on to light the next, and the next. The repeating waves of hills in this make this photograph serene and beautiful. Change comes slowly but it brings the Light, and the Darkness will recede. It has always been so in the order of things.
