Pre dawn light in Durmitor National Park Montenegro. A perfect stillness at sunrise before the moon dissapeared behind the peaks.

Lovely composition. In addition to the "perfect stillness" you expertly took advantage of the perfect position of the lifting clouds that reveal the shoreline as well as the mountains and moon. Serendipity.

A nice moody composition. I would have liked to see a larger version with the moon about to set behind the hills. The water line is about 1/2 way up the photo and I might have cropped some off the bottom to give more emphasis to the top.

Beautiful mood and color. +1 to the suggestion to crop... but not sure from where. Perhaps from the right or bottom, but overall to emphasize the shape in the mountain and how it cups the moon (which right now is a bit too far to fully enjoy, for me)

Lovely mood, and very nice color and sense of early light. Personally, I find the moon to be a little distracting since my eye goes right to it. Maybe it's just me, but the reflection looks brighter that the real objects, which I find a bit disconcerting. You might try adjusting it down just a bit. I like 50/50 comp: It fits well with the subject.

I really like the mood and reflection. Very nice scene. I am with Preston about the moon, I find it pulls my eye and for me, changes the mood of the image in a distracting way.

The touch of brightness and sharpness in the center of the image is simply magnificent - it greatly enhances and already beautiful image! Nicely done!

Love the misty mood and soft colors. I like the comp as is, the shoreline in the center of the frame gives it a bit more abstract feeling and works well with the mood.
