Get the light right Project 365 Day 349

I'm probably stating the obvious here but a half decent landscape picture does very much depend upon good lighting.

 

I've seen this view several times and on each occasion it looks different. In the morning, when the light is colder and in the opposite direction, the mountains look mysterious. In the summer, when the sun is high, they look flat.

 

Yesterday, in the warm light of late afternoon, I think they looked their best.

 

I only had a narrow window of opportunity because half an hour earlier or later and the scene looked very different.
