Not an obvious sunrise i spose. Gloomy sunrise. Taken from Valla Beach in Australia on a cloudy morning at 5:20am. Long exposure (2.5 seconds). Entered into PhotoWeek contest "reflections". The Sea is such a large reflection of the sky, if the sky's gloomy the sea reflects it and is gloomy.

Edit:
-Cropped some sky out
-Cloned out a tree at the bottom
-Straightened the horizon (was 3 degrees off :P)

This is more like it :)

Couple of things though:
*horizon is sitting down on the left- with landscape if you can see the horizon this is IMPORTANT, people are really sensitive to it.
*Tiny bit of plant in the bottom of the frame, just kinda breaks it up and ruins otherwise clean composition.
*horizon is more or less in the centre and because there is basically a single tone for the water and horizon, I think you could crop some of the horizon out.

Overall looks pretty good though, once of my favourite shots I've seen from you...welcome to the world of cold early morning photography :)

Alright thanks man. With your third thing do you mean crop off the top? so its more earth less sky? I didn't even notice that plant, i would clone it out but its in a comp and they might not like that. Ill try and fix it up after the comps done hey.

Much obliged

Yeh, I think the sky has too many similar tones to require that much space.
