Nice panoramic scene, Craig! The burst of sun through the clouds is very appealing. I think it could do with some more clearly defined lines into the distance, because I think it would add some tension to the composition. But a beautiful shot; well done!
Another great one for the series, Craig! It reminds me a littel of my shot taken at Karuizawa, with the ranges of mountains shading away in different layers of grey. The clouds above and beautiful, too, and old Fuji making its presence felt in the distance. Only one suggestion; I would attempt to lighten the very dark grey of the snow in the foreground. It can be done, although it might be pretty delicate work. That would provide a brighter underpinning for the picture and echo the clouds a little more effectively. Just a thought...
