About the image:
This image is one of my personal favorites. In my opinion, mount Egmont is one of the most beautiful mountains in the world and I was lucky to climb it multiple times and see it on different occasions. It took a lot of effort and I have been to this specific location 3 times until I finally got the perfect image. On the first time, there was a big cloud that sat on the mountain and even though I waited for about 8 hours for it to disappear, I eventually had to get off the mountain before dark. On the second time, the sky was clear but that made the image mundane. The third time was perfect – I got an amazing reflection and the skies had those high clouds to fill the rest of the image.
