Stunning work, Elena! #1643914Elena Davydova December 01, 2015
Thank you, Terry! :-) #11406679Rudi Reiner December 01, 2015
Agree, what a perfect moment! #11406760Elena Davydova December 01, 2015
Thank you, Rudi! Was a bit lucky with the weather, considering that I only had one morning there. Other than that, you need to be there really early if you want to find not only a pleasant company, but also a spot for taking pictures :) #11406761Lynn M. Whitt December 02, 2015
Wow, perfect capture. #11406797Elena Davydova December 02, 2015
Thanks, Lynn! :-) #11406938Sandy Driscoll December 02, 2015
Beautiful, Elena! I was there a few years ago and it's such a splendid spot. Looks like you caught a bit of snow, too! That certainly adds to your really gorgeous shot! #11406954Elena Davydova December 02, 2015
Thank you, Sandy! I was there for the first time in my life and I only had one chance to be there in the morning. It was not the most spectacular sunrise, but it was not bad as well, and I liked the snow also! Otherwise, I have met many nice people there, and that was also interesing! Well worth having to wake up in the middle of the night :-) Hope to come back one day, landscape there is certainly unique and amazing #11406961Ritajane Smith December 02, 2015

Haha, yes, Terry, I'm happy, and it was totally worth it! I have also been in many beautiful places in the wrong time, it's just not possible to get everywhere for the sunrise/sunset. But I don't regret I've tried this particular place. Hope you'll go there another day and make some wonderful photos! And thanks again!! :-) #11449842Shirley D. Cross-Taylor March 21, 2016
