Second last of the shots from this one morning. This one was tone mapped using FDR tools basic (Which I'm playing with as part of my research into HDR tools before I buy one.) and the tone mapped version layer masked with the original, the overall effect being that the left of the image has more colour in the final than in my original version and a bit more detail in the dark areas on that side. I rarely put the waterline or horizon line in any of my images near the centreline, but in this case I experimented with the angle of the foreground grass to reduce the "square" effect of the waterline centrelined. (MMM, ugly english but brief.)

Enjoy.

Mikel.

An amazing palette of pastels. Excellent composition. Too bad something this beautiful lasts just a few minutes.

This one turned out great. The composition looks well-balanced, the colors look very natural, and I love the green grass in the foreground. Another fine sunrise, Mikel!

Last night I lay in bed looking up at the stars in the sky and I thought to myself, where the heck is the ceiling.

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I... I took the one less travelled by, and that has made all the difference.

Striking colors and details. Amazes me sometimes how each sunrise can bring such different hues and light. Love the the silhouettes and surroundings.
