Very nice composition. Good proportions of foreground, background and reflections. Good diagonals in the rocks and headland. I especially like the use of a longer exposure to get a softening of the clouds and water, compared to the strong edge detail in the rocks in the foreground and headland in the background. Colors appear a tad weak, but the monitor I'm viewing this on doesn't do justice to images posted to the forum.

Peaceful and almost surreal. I like the effect.

Great shot. I like the limited pallette. Gives the image an overall calming effect.

I think nice Sunrise\Sunset shots need something more than just the strength of the sky. I think you have that here in the wonderful shapes between the pool and the bay.

The soft, muted color range is what grabs me. This is a very nice shot.

You've captured the feeling of a calm, quiet early morning beautifully. I like the "pool" in the foreground with its reflection of the clouds and the bright spot of sky in the upper left-hand corner. Nice shot! Were the water, sky and clouds as magenta as they look?
