You're up a bit early for a holiday :-0

Nice sharp shot of Vesuvius Derek, very crisp above the layer of morning haze.. The CP has helped with the saturation of the clouds very well.

Nice view

Hi Derek,
Stunning view! The mist and clouds are as a veil over the mountain. Superb pastel colours and the low contrast make it an mysterious landscape.
Hans

Bonjour Derek

Beautiful sunrise shot Derek .. love that time of morning!
The soft colors throughout, and the gradient of color in the mountain with the mist at the bottom, are really beautiful. The two boats of the water are a bonus.
Great shot

Hi Derek,
A nice, clean and simple photo with tons of mood in it. The low fog gave the volcanoe a nice soft touch while the colors in the sky boast the view. I like the many boattrails in the FG, it ads just that bit more interest.

Hi Derek,
Excellent capture of this gorgeous sunrise!
The haze at the bottom of the Mount Vesuvius is particularly well rendered!Emphasized by the luminous clouds, the mount stands in all its majestic beauty!
Very beautiful! Annie

Fantastic lighting and soothing colors in this image. You have great detail in the clouds and water from this perfect exposure. The light on the clouds in the middle of the frame really make them stand out. TFS
