My favourite Icelandic mountain during an August Summer sunrise. I overlooked this image for some time until I tried a square crop.

Great composition -- the little pool with reflection in the lush green makes the shot for me, along with the little wisp of cloud at the mountain tip.

Nice job placing the peak in the reflection. It really helps to tie the composition together. I don't particularly like the processing, however. The colors look really amped up with unnatural greens in the immediate foreground, intense cyan skies, and even some cyan popping up in the tufts of cotton grass in the midground. The transition from quite light in foreground to immediately going darker also bugs me a bit. With some more natural processing I would definitely like this one as the composition is solid.
