This was by the Upper Joffre Lake in Canada. I was hoping for a nice sunrise but instead I got a thick cloud moving through with pouring rain minutes later. The weather shifts very quickly in this place.

The foreground is really bright (especially that one pine in the center) and distracts from the water and cool cloud shapes that I think you intended to be the subject.

I like most of the light level in the foreground, although perhaps the patch of earth on the left is a bit too high. Also feel like the form of the clouds is great, with the smoke-like spill-over, but the lack of texture because of their overexposure in them overall hurts them. But the treelines and the water, I love.
