Hi my friend! Congratulations on having your "rare" photo opportunity selected as POTD! I would love to see that mountain myself one day. You did a wonderful job of capturing its beuaty and majesty. It was "meant" for you to be there to record its beauty. I've not had much time for commenting lately and have only posted one album recently, but I saw this and had to congratulate you. Keep the beauty coming Suresh! Huge hugs from Tennessee - Carole

Hi Suresh, I wrote a congratulatory message first thing this morning, but it is not here....I must have been so sleepy that I forgot to hit "say it" and it never posted. Be that as it may, this is an awesome shot as everyone has said. We are "the privileged visitors" to your album and get to enjoy this rare beauty from the comfort of our own homes. Thank you for traveling the world over and sharing all of your gorgeous photos with us. Carol

A HAVENLY CAPTURE
said
amen2006 2007.10.26 at 02:14:02 PDT
Then we at webshots are truely privelged also. This is a composition we would not normally see portraying Alaska. We (I) tend to imagine these trees, the montains and the glaciers and lots of ice and blue. This gives a new perspective. Lovely to see a blue sky enhance the magestic mountains. The dahlias are an added bonus, fabulous shot.
said
poppy1812 2007.10.22 at 04:30:39 PDT

said
fuij 2007.09.17 at 04:33:32 PDT
I've changed my mind - This HAS to be POTD. Even without the foreground interest of the flowers this would have been good but the colours have added that extra dimension that sorts out the men from the boys as it were. This would win any photo competition hands down and were you to give it to an agency I would suggest you would sell a bundle!!
