Long Reef Sunrise

I was running a bit late this morning and only grabbed a handful of captures, this was the first frame.........

I really like the 'S' shape traced out by the water, however I think the light / timing lets the rest of the shot down.

a good increase in contrast and saturation would change this into a very interesting image........ I like the shot

i love the grey blue tones
i saw plenty of that sort of look at Noosa but never managed to capture it so elegantly like you have

thanks gents! Appreciate the comments and suggestions.

I wanted to have a "silvery" finish so I did not use a CPL. With the "silvery" shen I was also concerned about too much saturation bump but may have a play again.

Wendell, I'm sure you could easily achieve, just have to wake early

[firsty]

love the original
frame it and put it on a wall Quick!!!!! (needs a minimalist frame in a minimalistic setting).... did I say I love this shot

Would look great on canvas I think.

Love the location.
Once upon a time, a long time ago, before the digital age.
I used to live near there.
Spent alot of money taking pictures there.
