a Grey day and a backlit mountain this time of year made this a bit of a challenge.

Lovely landscape. HDR is so in, this should do well. I am not real crazy for it. It has a cartoonish quality when its overdone. Most overdo it. This is on the verge of being overdone. I like the color in the water. It is what attracts my attention the most. I do see the heart in the mountian so it fits well.
Interesting mountain and nice cloud action, is it a HDR image? It strikes me a bit that way. The color or tone is a little flat and I would crop out some of the water.
6 - Beautiful capture of this scene - lovely colors. Wish this were all about 'Heart Mountain' though - in fact this image cropped to the base of the trees, showcases it well and dramatically...
