Your use of a lighter value at the top of the mountains sends the eye back as it should because it softens that edge. Hard to do without an understanding of the use of color to soften edges verses using a soft brush to blend it with the sky. Very nice. My only issue is the trees on the right are too perfect as far as that line racing straight down. You did stop the movement with the larger tree at the bottom but I would add a few different heights in that shape or carve out some negative space to make it more interesting to look at. Beautiful work.

Very nice work Charles.  Are you a "student" of Steven Quiller?
