All of these are simple gorgeous. They all tell a story on their own.

However, the topic is "majestic dignity or grandeur,". How much more majestic dignity or grandeur can you have in the forefront of those gorgeous mountains unless you are an outstanding beacon.

Bravo to you all!

I love the depth of it and also the abstract. I used to use satellite photos of the earth for ideas for paintings.
