[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This photo was taken from Cana Island, near Baily's Harbor, Door County, Wisconsin. This is a sunrise on Green Bay. I had actually gone exploring very early in the morning to find the Cana Island lighthouse. (I love taking lighthouse pictures) Door County has 10 lighthouses in the area. It was a very grey and windy morning, and I could hear alot of ducks out on the water. As the sun came up, they all started taking off. This shot turned out better than the lighthouse picture.

Door County is a narrow, 90 mile long peninsula that separates Green Bay from Lake Michigan. Numerous small harbor towns with great bed and breakfest inns. A very popular vacation spot in this part of the country.

The photo was shot in JPEG format, and later converted to TIF when I edited it. I lost the EXIF information.

Nice sunset!! Wouldve been a super shot if the ducks had been closer. Is the bleeding around the suns disc due to the "blooming" effect or is it because of the clouds?

I like this sunset a lot and it looks like a poster. The colors are stunning as well.

Very well done and thanks for posting.

Love this one Scott. The only thing I would change is the amount of cloud/sky at the top. It is a personal preference but I would crop some out. Have posted a workshop to show you. Other that that 10 ot of 10. Great job. TFS

Een welke mooie zonsopgang u ving! Het is een prachtig gezicht om de zon te zien omhoog komen. Het betaalt om op te staan vroeg 's morgens. Ik wens dit ik daar was. Dank voor het delen van een dergelijke overweldigende mening! Absoluut mooi! Ik houd zeer van het.
