 Around 9:30 in the morning shot at a view point on the north side near the lodge. I only resized it to fit in the dimensions specified. Auto White Balance. Oh Sigma 28-80mm at 28mm for the lens. I was on Landscape shooting mode in camera. The Contrast, Sharpness, Color Saturation were all +1 and the color tone was normal. sRGB. Ok I used auto color correction for the colors to come out more.

Isnt this the just most awe inspiring sight? Very hard to capture in a single photograph. Good effort though. Seeing this photograph brings back a lot of good memories for me.

You call this picture grand morning and that just askes for a comment.
Seeing the shadows I would say it is almost midday, as you know the most beautifull light is in the early morning (sunrise or just after) or the late afternoon (just before or at sunset) I think the photo could have been more exeptional when taken in the right light. Now it looks just a lttle flat and the haze takes away from the background.

Another thing that you could have done is this (little trick)
Open up the photo in Photoshop press: ctrl alt ~ (three keys at one time)
It will select the lightness, then goto image->adjustments->Brightness/contrast and "up" the contrast around 40% then goto select -> Deselect and look at you picture again.

I hope you vote this comment helpfull :) Good luck!

strong blue cast at the farther landscape. should have removed it and increased red saturation. To show the beautilfulness of this, also some contrast increase would be helpful.

You could probably have set the WB better, it´s got a blue hue that kindof ruins it but awesome view you found there, looks like a great place to visit.
