Your title states the obvious! This is a great shot requiring no words. Lovely focus from front to back and an interesting view.

Shooting into the light though has caused overexposure in the sky and peaks.

Not sure if I like the trees at the fornt of your shot, then again, if it was cropped to take them out, again it wouldn't look right... I do like the mountains in the background, it's great that I can see each ridge etc on them.

Incredible landscape!!! I'd really like to stay there. Lighting is really hard maybe trying to take this shot at the sooner or later in the day to get the light behind you would have been amazing. (7)

Nice colors but they would pop even more if you had used a graduated Neutral Density filter. As is, the sky is over-exposed while the valley is underexposed. Mountains appear about right. Looks like a great place to call home!

It's a bummer that the sky is rather blown out -- otherwise it's an awesome scene!

great shot...looks like spring has sprung..the foreground balances the mountains nicely and the foothills draw my attention to the town..well done.

Beautiful, but the mountains are a bit overexposed. Easily corrected with the shadow/highlight adjustment in PS
