Lovely colours, and amazing landscape with the 'icefield' on the left. Due to the special colour of the sky, it has a very surreal feel, almost like watching a sci-fi series footage.

One thing, though, is that for me the composition does not work all that great. The sun is very centered, the horizon is a bit in the middle. Now the rule of thirds is no rule, but it tends to work a tad better than centred, in my opinion. Given the interesting texture of the ground, and the forest in the right, I guess I would have pointed the camera down to make more use of that.

But that's also just a matter of taste, of course.

I like this shot, Thomas. Nice contrast between the warmth of the sun and warm colors with the obvious "cold" of the ice.

Well done...
