    Base image was from Lake Cuyamaca at dawn back in November. Brought mountains and FG to black using levels, boosted saturation, and added Topaz Clean.

    Brendan, Great image for the theme. The colors are amazing. I think the Clean added a nice touch to this.

    This is beautiful, Brendan. I love it! The colors of the sky, reflection and the silhouette makes it such wonderful composition. Well captured and processed.

    Killer sunrise colors and a nice image design. I've been kicked out of that place for being a pro and did not even know that there was a Lake there... Getting a lot higher would have been great to place the trees completely against the lake (though likely not possible of course....)

    Thanks folks, much appreciated.

    Paul & Artie, the lake is very easy to miss, more like an oversized pond.

    Love the capture of deep tones of early, early morning, Brendan. The silhouetts are great.

    Brendan, I love the colors and silhouettes. I especially like the Topaz effect on the water. Nice job
