Okay, so if the ridge is NOT going to carry the day, but the reflection and sky are, your strengths are oriented vertically in relation to each other. That along with your foreshortening technique makes me wonder if a vertical comp shouldn\'t be explored. Here\'s a rough crop to square (most portrait I could get) that truncates the length of the ridge (determined not to be the strong suit for drama) in favor of strengthening the reflection / foreground / sky.
Granted a bit of imagination is need to convert it to portrait orientation ... but I think the crux of the issue is trying to make the length of the ridge your strong/dramatic hand, when it is the weaker element due to the limitations of lighting orientation.
Add some illuminated clouds (which will reflect dimensionality) about two hours (or so) before sunset ...
