Opportunities

Opportunities are like sunrises. If you wait too long, you miss them. William Arthur Ward

I miss as few opportunities for sunrise photos as time and weather permit

I'm not a great fan of sunrises/sunsets, but this one is more delicate than most.

Oh gosh, this is beautiful. Fav

[Joan Robillard]

@vignouse did you see where I messed up on the reflections - waiting to see if anyone notices

[Richard Sayer]

@joansmor I'm presuming the bottom right corner but I didn't mention it as I had no idea what was or wasn't out of shot!

[JackieR]

@joansmor @vignouse did you clone the trees- a lot?? If only sunrise was at mid day!!

[Joan Robillard]

@vignouse Yeah I did content aware edit fill. Wondered if it would work to leave it.

[Joan Robillard]

Beautiful shot

[Henri Russell]

Oh so beautiful.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Since our eyes are drawn to the building and the sun rising above it, I'm not surprised we all missed the "messy reflection". Was it really this frosty or were you playing with the color as well?

[Dawn]

Oh so beautiful

[haskar]

Fabulous shot. Great tones and reflections.

[Joan Robillard]

@olivetreeann I am not sure why you think frosty - what I played with most was to lighten the shot so the trees weren't silhouetted. So the bare trees stand out.

[Joan Robillard]

@olivetreeann It was about 35F

[CC Folk]

This is a beauty, Joan! Fav.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

@joansmor It just looked like a chilly Fall morning- i.e. frosty. I guess I was being too artsy with my words!

[Milanie]

Gorgeous - nicely composed with those beautiful colors.
