superb location

Quite a superb location for capturing the earth shadow on an obviously optimal end of day cloud situation with clear air to the west, a probable cloud deck above to illuminate the near and middle ground below. Love the foreground bedrock water drainage patterns. I congratulate you in finding one of the best subjects one might happen upon in the range. I've been to these lakes a few times but didn't consider climbing those slopes for this perspective. My only critical input coming from someone with a natural style is the pink sky of the nightwedge is IMO a bit overdone however am well aware the majority of landscape photographers in this era tend to fudge into the somewhat unnatural saturation in that direction while my own preference.
