Re: Interesting Light....

The light was actually filtered through some light/misty clouds (really stunning!) - it wasn't backlit at all. Thanks for your comment!

Re: perfect timing!

Thanks solonomad - I was so excited to finally see the peak after a cloudy afternoon that I couldn't put the camera down ... I shot the whole range, from cloudy to sunny to cloudy again. :)
