Dynamic as usual, Radisa. Really like your decision to include the roadway and provide scale to the scene.

I like the photo, the colours in the sky, on the mountain. But I do find the foreground not that interesting, I want to what's behind the grass.

It is difficult in the panoramas like this to find good foreground elements without competing with the main subject, or to become a distracting element. At this distance and elevation from the mountain peaks I found nothing interesting in the foreground, not even anything like leading lines, without undermining the perceived composition. Many photographers make the mistake by forcing something into the foreground, and vertically oriented compositions are most thankful to me for the interesting and fluid foreground connected with main subject. Thanks a lot for the constructive comment!
