Whenever I see this scene, I am reminded of a section from the classic, "Pilgrim's Progress" by John Bunyan.
....
"These mountains are Emmanuel’s land, and they are within sight of His city; and the sheep also are His, and He laid down his life for them."
….
The reflective light across the hills in the breaks just "hint" of the light of God. Another fun fact...Emanuel Reinhold, my grandpa, use to call this home..."Emanuel's Land"

The newcomers quickly learned their way about and soon felt at home. The Homestead Act of 1862 provided them, as well as many other pioneers, with an opportunity to acquire land and establish family farms. To the land-hungry immigrants, the tough prairie sod seemed a golden opportunity and they conquered it by hard work. - President Harry S. Truman
