Canaveral National Seashore Sunrise No. 4

[Robert Amoruso]

Now this one is Canaveral National Seashore Sunrise No. 4. My previous post was clouds. Taken 7-24-08.

Here I leave in a lot of the FG at low tide as it captures the sunrise colors and you get nice patterns from the water rushing in and out. I believe I left this a bit dark from the actual sunrise as I liked the drama of it better this way.

Oh what a beauty this is...
Dramatic sky & surreal water. Liked the glow around the sun behind the clouds & its reflection too.
Initially I was wondering if a crop below (so as to bring the horizon line to ROT) would help - but on second thoughts felt that it would remove the some good reflections below. I guess I like it as posted.

robert, this is one of my favorites of your canaveral series!! love the darker clouds on the right. really dramatic! i like the inclusion of the beach because it shows the reflection of the sun. well done!!

Love the sweeping cloud and the tones throughout. A very interesting color combination. i like the slightly darker feel as it emphasizes the light play on the water. Well done.

Very smooth, very creamy, I like the soft feel and the pastel colors rendered in the sky...:cool:

Hey Robert,
This might be my favorite also of the series. That is some water!

The words that come to mind with this image are Clear and Clean.

No nits here - It has a beautiful compositional balance.

Thanks everyone. I appreciate the comments. When I got there that morning I thought I was going to bomb out but was happy to get this one.
