I was at the top of Stony Pass again yesterday morning for sunrise. There were some nice clouds with decent color to the west, which is the direction I usually shoot. After the color to the west faded, I turned around and shot towards the SE because the clouds were still pretty good and I could capture them reflected in another tarn. The 2-stop hard grad neutral density filter was perfect to balance the bright sky with the darker land.
