    The soft water is nice here and the branch is a nice touch. Wish there wasn't so many clouds in the sky so more color could come through.

    Hi Mike, I like that you have 'composed' this with the stick in the FG nicely positioned for me anyway. I agree with JM that a little more colour would lift the image more, but in lieu of that I would consider lightening the RHS a little more as it's dark I feel and maybe a little selective sharpening on the clouds only....

    Thanks John. Unfortunately the weather was not the best that morning. At one stage we were in danger of the clouds blocking out the sun completely. You just have to make the best of the conditions you are presented with.

    Thanks Don. I will have a look at your suggestion. That stick is a massive trunk, an adult can sit on it!

    Hi Mike, a simple and effective composition. Do wish for better sunrise color but you did very nicely with what you were presented with. I also like the distant rain storm too :)
