Hi Tony,
as you head towards summer I have to look forward to ice and snow,which is not a bad thing and a warm weather shot such as this one reminds that winter doesn't last forever.I like the mood of this photo that has nice colour and focus.I would of stopped down the lens for greater dof and a less strong exposure,but that is the beauty of cameras as you can make so many variations for exposures.I have taken these kind of shots with f/18 or f/22 and got good results.A nice shot and thanks for showing it to us. Bob

Hello Tony,
That is a beautiful cloud formation in the horizon!
The light reflects from the water in a wonderful way, and the foreground interest creates depth in the scenery...
A well balanced composition with great dedtails!

Hi Tony!

A good way to start a day! Having a look at the beauty of nature, breathing some fresh air and freeing ones mind... perfect conditions for a perfect day.

Your picture is simple, yet very pleasant and shows a delicate landscape. I like the shape of the clouds and the lighting very much.

Thank you for sharing it with us and for transmitting your good temper. When I read your pleasant notes that usually accompany your pictures I get the impression that you are a very positive person, always in fine feather.

Kind regards

Markus

Hola Ho,
Tu toma ha dado un sustancial cambio a los
paisajes a que nos tenías acostumbrados; aquellos eran de gran fuerza y dinámicos y este
es de un estilo más relajado. Me gusta pues el formato y sobre todo el realismo del agua. El cielo, también, logrado. Estético y acertado el primer plano con las rocas. Buen trabajo.

Hi Tony

A clean, clear composition - well thought out - I like the ripple around the stone as a small, but engaging detail.

Hi Tony

What a beautiful and moody scene! The serenity and tranquility here are really evident!
I really love the colors near the horizon as the sun is ready to emerge from that lovely set of fluffy clouds. The night was calm, just as the present dawn, a fact visible from the calm water with only small parallel ripples on its surface. They really add a lot to the atmosphere and the composition.
Good exposure management and great POV.
I'm not too sure about the compo...but no other crop comes to mind right now, wither... :)

Bravo and TFS

Serene and tranquil this, Tony. Soft and lovely colors, and I like how you've presented the sun just peeping above that still dark bank of clouds, with the shimmering on the water. Personally, I'd crop about an inch off the top, maybe slightly more, and really draw the eye right to that horizon. But that's a judgment call. Just to show you what I had in mind, I did a workshop, which I respectfully submit. Hope you like it. In any case, good work and TFS.

Another beautiful view of French Bay,the cloud bank is spectacular.I love the way the sun peeks out from it and the reflections on the water.
It always seems so pleasant there.

Hello Tony,

What a great shot. Just in time Tony. The cloud blocking out the sun glare. Very well done. Excellent. The red stripe at the bottom of the clouds is marvelous. What a colour. The light reflects on the watersurface gives the photo some serenity. A very nice composition. Have a nice weekend and TFS BOB

Hello Tony
With the heavy snow we have had here in the UK this makes your photo remind me of hopefully the better weather to come. This wonderful photo of yours has been captured really well, great composition with the dark clouds and sun shining on the water, a sunrise caught in all its glory.
