Nice lighting. I really like the long crop that accents how the mountains stretch out over a great distance. The way the shape of the highest brightly lit peaks is repeated in the dark ridge adds a sense of depth. Good POV

Excellent colour. I like the detail in the foreground as it gives the mountains a place on which to sit.

This is a really breathtaking mountain panorama - the colors are beautiful, and the shadows in the valleys give some mysterious feeling. And it is also an interesting informatioin for me - I did not know that it was possible to see Everest from India!
