[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This was the first sunrise reflection over the Himalayan peaks I saw from my hostel at Lachen, North Sikkim (Altitude 12,000 feet ASL). I was leaving for Gurudongmar Lake early in the morning at 6 AM and realized the golden glow was coming from none other than the mountain behind us. Hope you too like this heavenly glow above the peaks :)

Hi Subhash,

The glow above the peaks are wonderful, only I felt the foreground has listless black which could have been cropped?
