Beyond the usual sharpen, saturation, levels boost these are not photoshopped. I used a blue/gold polarizer and some nd filters...

love the second one. So this is what a sunrise looks like. I will stick to the sunsets, because I am not a morning person. Great shots.

Those are so stunning. I love sunrises. They are more peaceful, more quiet.

Very nice!

Thanks guys.

I don't usually get up so early but once in a while it's worth it for the peace and the light...

That it is.

Great stuff

Great job - I love sunrise more than sunset, but I really dislike getting up so early...

The second one is amazing!

The only time I've ever seen the sunrise is when I've still been awake from the night before

Same here (I *knew* we were really twins)! Love the colors!

I used to joke about only being able to stay up until five am. Now, I can get up that early once in a while. I must be getting old...

I'm digging the sun flare!!! *yawn*

...that's early. *yawn*

*snerk*

All the best,
Roxanne

LOL

I'm starting to get the whole Canon vs. Nikon for the sunflare thing! It was a PTA to try to get any flare at all...

You mean there's a five *A*m? ;o)

Splendid photos!

Isn't that the truth! lol It's way easier for me to stay up all night than to get up early in the morning.

They are all 100% gorgeous... BUT, that last one makes my toes curl!!! That sun peeking through it's as good as it gets!! Bravo! And thank God you are out there getting these shots because my body doesn't even know about 5AM! +1 Hahahahaha!

Thanks again all, the second shot is of Maxwell Lake here in town. It will be the new cover for our local phone directory.

cool!!!!!!!!!!!

I love the way water on the horizon glows with the gold polarizer.

Hot!... er, I mean Cool!


Too early, can't tell.

I think I like the 1st and 3rd best. Hi, my name is Scott, and I'm a morning person..up at 5:15 everyday.
