[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Taken from Westhaven Marina looking out towards the sunrise peaking over the horizon.

I like the contrast between the still waters of the marina and the slighly rougher water outside, I think the clouds make the photo, I've got a similar shot but with no clouds and it lacks something compared to this shot.

What a lovely image! I love the still water in the foreground and dramatic sky. The picture is perfectly clear and well lit. Best wishes!

A beautiful picture Robert, a very nice reflection and a huge sky! Very nice.
Best regards

Great shot. I like the lights' glare and colors.. gives a feeling of a warm romantic evening.

This is so well captured. The light work and the colors are great..sets in the mood. Its a moment well seen and composed.

Hi Robert,
Great shot, given the difficult light conditions that you had to work in here. Definitely the clouds made this photo.

Wonderful shot Robert.
This is one of the best sunrise/sunset photos I saw on TL last month. Sparkles from lights and colors of sky is great. Water texture is also nice catchen.

this is great! very very impressive..the sky is very dramatic..very moody and expressive.. the composition is great..and the exposure was really good! Thumbs up!!

What a picture. The light is dramatic and the image clear. I loved the whole scene.

Hello Robert
j'aime l'ambiance qui se dégage de ton image
calme et dramatique à la fois
l'effet de miroir de l'eau à gauche est interressant et s'oppose à celui de l'eau à droite
amicalement

Yes, the clouds are a must in this picture I think that you did great on choosing this one. Great eye and keep it up. David

Robert, the dramatic and threatening clouds make this picture, well done. Cheers G

Very beautiful picture Robert, a very nice reflection.Congratulations!!
Deniz.
