  Thanks everyone. It was a great morning to be out, and I really enjoyed just watching fog/mist flow over the ridge. Since the camera with me, snapped a few shots while I was at it :).

  Honored that the second received recognition. Uploaded both a while back and the first won a finalist and the second was not mentioned. Recently, while on travel with no access to new photos to upload, I decided to re-submit this one.

  Thanks everyone for all the wonderful comments. It was indeed a great morning to be out for a sunrise, besides yielding some nice photos (one other from this series was liked by the BP Judges earlier last year: http://www.betterphoto.com/Premium/Gallery.phpx?id=260216&cat=0&photoID=12443098&mp=V2 ), just because!
