Early morning just after sunrise on an empty beach is a special time.
Took this picture a few days ago at Waikuku Beach.
Waited to get some interesting wave action.
Pentax K10D with Tamron 70-300 @ 70mm.
1/4000 @ F4.5 @ 800 ISO minus 0.5 EV.
Comments welcome.

Hi Ian,
I think a slight local contrast enhancement using USM amount 20 ......Radius around 30........Threshold 0......would make this pop a little more. The shoreline diagonal makes for a very pleasing comp and the mist/haze adds to the overall appeal. I can almost smell the salt air. The little pebbles on the beach also add to the overall feel.
Thanks Robert.
I tried different color variations of decrease green and dec green shadows gave this result.
Somewhat warmer colours.
Looks better I think.
