I've traveled 14 many times but didn't know of this trail. I'll have to make a point of getting back down there in the future.

Luck happens when preparation meets opportunity!
This is actually just a pull off on the HWY... there is maybe room for 3 cars and it's as you go around a bend in the road..... easy to miss.
When I got there 10 minutes pre-dawn and dawn was due, it looked dismally gray.... then within about 2 minutes after "sunrise" the clouds started lighting up.... it got this intense... I really did not add much to it other than light shadows for the trees and reduce highlights.... I left contrast alone, those two settings pretty much did the trick. It was a beautiful morning.... It was right after this that I had my encounter with the bully bulldozer dude.....

Love it, well done. The field on the lower left is a nice pop.
An "accurate" reproduction of a scene and a good photograph are often two different things.
