I have this view everyday on my way to work, on the days that it looks like this, I feel fortunate to live where I do.

If that's your commute I envy you! My reservation here is that the colours look a little flat. The mountains don't have the majestic impact to me that I feel they should have. Perhaps you've focused your attention more on the forest foreground? I really enjoyed this.
A change of title would be better for me, such as morning view or scenic drive. This photo does not make me think of commuting, but it's a beautiful morning shot.
This has the makings of a great picture but to me the composition lacks. The groups of mountains seem to be fighting to be the "subject". I would have cropped severely to eliminate all but the "white" looking mountain to the right of center. Also, the large mass of trees is not sharp and is uninteresting.
6: It must be hard commuting through all those trees :)
Nice colours but I'd like to see them "pop" a bit more, especially in the sky. If you rotated so the treeline was horizontal then the mountains would feel a little more dramatic too
