Sunrise from Point Lenana, the trekking summit of Mount Kenya, looking towards the higher peaks beyond.

Painted from the experience of reaching the summit at first light, as the rising sun caught the upper slopes and briefly transformed the mountain into intense pinks, oranges and violet against the darkness of the surrounding rock.
