[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This picture was taken early in the morning at Dell Quay, I had been there since before dawn.
The day was freezing.
This guy was there before me, perhaps he had been there all night.
Neat Image used.

Hi Michael,

Wonderful photo!
Love the golden colour tones of dawn! The place seems so peaceful, only the sounds of nature are heard there.
Thanks for sharing this lovely composition!

Lovely morning-shot, Michael, so peaceful how it's mostly at those early hours, befor the wind sets in and destroys the mirror of the waters. Soft pastels do underline this mood and so does the slight mist upon the water and land, giving depth to the compo. The fisherman in his typical attitude is a real eyecatcher.
Well arranged compo and well executed.
TFS,
Hauke

P.S.: Only thing disturbing me a bit is the frame. You'd better done it simply in black in my opinion for it strenghtens the colours.... But the shot itself is magic...

A marvelous day must have followed this sunrise, the colors and the composition are stunning. Thanks for the sharing,
Fran

Very good photo Michael! I love the soft golden and pastel-like colours. Thanks!
