My Corner of New Hanover
Marsh Creek Sunrise I

It's a sunrise and speaks for itself. No words are necessary.
"The Master in the art of living makes little distinction between his work and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body, his education and his recreation, his love and his religion. He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence in whatever he does, leaving others to decide whether he is working or playing. To him he is always doing both."

Wonderful colors and I really like the reflection in the water.

Wonderful shot, Russ! Incredible detail and gradation of colors... and I love the way the slightly choppy water farther out breaks the reflection of the horizon on the right. Thanks for sharing your terrific picture with us!

Okay Russ I totally love this image. It has some super things going for it. The composition is spot on. The tones are beautiful. The symmetry of the trees on the left forming a slight triangle that is mirrored in a way by the distant shoreline on the right and the the clouds. Not a single nit pick from me and nothing but kudos.

Probably the most powerful image I've seen you post! Knocks the socks off me even as a thumbnail. I enjoy vibrant colors like this and the calmness of the water just adds more to it. Very well done!
