[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Morning in Texas. Colors, and lines of the cloud attracted my feeling to take this photo. Texas is great in the sky, everyday you can see beautiful cloud with its unique look. I have similar one on TE, but this one is a little bit different in its colors and graphics. Hope you like it.

perfect composition, and beautiful colors. Greetings.

It's a very interesting effect - the sun has been strangely warped by the clouds (and your camera's sensor.) Interesting that even at such a small aperture and fast exposure the sun itself seems overexposed, almost.
Very striking and unusual sunrise colours.

Neat geometries and contrast play. The sky is very interesting with the cloud streaks and the sun half-way coming out. Excellent image!

Hi Sothy,

Wonderful shot. So warm.
The composition with the silhouettes is really good and that goes with the clarity in the picture as well.

Thanks,
Christian

Wow, well I just got back from Houston, Texas and I'll have to say we didn't have sunsets or sunrises like these, haha. Really incredible and unique silhouette shot because it's not a traditional landscape. It's an angular and simple outline of rooftops leading the eye down across the shot beautifully. Wonderful balance and excellent composition, I like how the shot is not divided perfectly in half, but has some balance with the bit of negative space at the bottom right. The colors of the sky are phenomenal, they are so rich and they do not look touched-up at all. Very sharp and crisp and I just love the dynamic element and rythms made with the striations of clouds across the sun in the sky. I do see a little lighter spot near the middle of the silhouette, at the left half, but that's nothing a little cloning in photoshop can't handle :) Excellent metering and exposure. Beautiful shot and I like the simple white frame to not distract from the photo, TFS!

Hi Sothy,

Nice lines combined with all that color .. I don't think I have used the work graphical and sunset in the same sentence before. Very nice.

take care,

John

Hello Sothy,
Very beautiful, with the gorgeous sunrise and the silhouetted lines from the rooftops. Nicely detailed as well.
All the best,
Karen
