Pretty photo Stephen. I like the colors of the sunrise and the sun's reflection on the water. I can't offer any advice here, well done.

I like the sun peaking below the cloud. Nice warm colors and framing with the tree. Well done.

Looks more warm than cold! A beautiful scene, very good exposure too. Im not sold on the tree at rhs--it unbalances the shot IMO, makes it rhs heavy. A simple solution is to crop the left side so the sun falls at 1/3 rather than dead center. You dont lose anything but repetition on the left side, and the result is much more appealing to my eye.

I really do like the warm light here and the foreground silhouettes work great. I could see a bit of left side crop too, but not too much.

Stephen,
Lovely sunrise. The sun peering through the clouds and it's reflection on the sound are quite pretty. The background island/peninsula looks a little hazy, but then the whole scene has a nice atmosphere to it. I might agree with a slight crop from the left, but no more than 1/2 of the open water. I like the starkness of the tree silhouette, but agree a little with Stan about throwing the comp a little out of balance. But overall, this is an excellent view and image.

Love that sun peeking out from under the clouds, and the nice silhouette of the trees. Great image.

You definitely caught the warm aspect. I love that small strip of light where the water and sky meet.
