awaiting the first rays of sun

Despite the rather strenuous climb to this picturesque lake, there is a lot of activity here during the day - luckily for me, because a passable path had been trodden through the snow that had already fallen. Early in the morning, however, it is quite quiet; there was only one other photographer there besides me. Since I wanted to photograph the first rays of sun on the yellow larches, I was a little disappointed when light veil clouds appeared as the light got lighter - these ensure a white sky and pale light in sunlight. Before sunrise, however, they are quite decorative, here they made almost the entire eastern sky glow pink.
