[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Seeing as though today the weather changed dramatically where I live on Lake Erie. Gale winds and rain, you name it. Needless to say I didn't get out to take any photos so I have a stash from my trip to South Carolina this past summer. This photo I actually took on our way home in West Virginia. The sun was rising as we were driving down up the interstate behind the mountains.

Hi Donna,

It always lovely to see the sunrise, but most people show sunset, because wake up too early is more difficult ust to catch the sunrise . .
Very well composed . .

Tfs,

Hello Donna,
Lovely minimalism!
Strong diagonal in this very attractive composition, spot on exposure!

01.11h. in the middle of the night and now I really have to stop, but I just wanted to have 1 quick look after uploading.
Donna, that would be a nice road to travel home. But maybe that nasty weather you talked about can be photographed as well, from the dry safety of a veranda, balcony, behind a rain splettered window, through a carefully half opened window?
TFS this moment.
I did have a look again and maybe I would have cropped a part of the bottem half.

Hi Donna

Perhaps I would crop this, so that the top of the treeline terminates in the top left corner, & the bottom part of the tree-line disappears into the bottom right corner. Just a thought. But the softness & subtle sunrise colours are very attrative. Tfs!

Hi Donna,
Very pretty picture. I love the silhouettes of the trees. Nice colors. Great compostition.

Hello Donna, this is a good diagonal silhouette composition by a very nice sunset.
Good light control, very sharp and no noise.

Very well done! Yan :)

ps: Thx so much for the great review on "Let's Celebrate". I am very pleased that you like it :)

HI Donna,

Beautiful dawn .. I love the tone in the sky .. your control of the brightness of the sun .. I love the silhouettes of the trees on the mountainside .. I think the image would be more powerful if you cropped off some to the black on the left and bottom .. very nice.

take care,

John
