Thoughts: After a night of rain, thunder, and lightning, I awoke to this calm morning. The clouds were breaking up and I stood on the eastern shore of Lake Ediza, hoping the Sun would break through and light up the sky. This photograph represents the only peak of soft light that morning, which illuminated the Minarets nicely.
