At 3 a.m. I hiked up to the lookout point over Mt. Bromo. It was dark and cold - the first time I had been cold in Indonesia. My dedication was rewarded with one of the most beautiful sunrises I have ever seen. Mixed with the smoke rising from Mt. Bromo, it created quite the scene.

I think maybe cropping a bit from the bottom would this even better since the foreground isn't terribly interesting. To me it seems slightly different than a lot of the Mt. Bromo shots so great work doing something a little different!

Perhaps a vignette might help draw the eye in a bit more as well and take focus away from that bottom foreground.

I wanted to go here when I went to Indonesia but couldn't make it over there in the time I had. Great shot, very jealous!
