These images were taken within a short time of one another. Which do myou prefer and why?

Second one by a long way - the sun makes the image, whereas in the first one I find myself looking for the sun.

Both nice images though

i actually like the first one more, i may just have grown tired of the usual sunrise phtoos though

number one for me oneputt.i like the lighter blue in the sky and the reflections on the water. plus the orange pink clouds look good to me.
cheers pa

I also prefer no. 1. Number 2 is similar to what you would get if you sent someone out to get a "sunset shot" (no offence) but 1 is the result of a dedicated photographer hanging around a little bit longer to see what transpires.

In short, no.1 does it for me!

First one. More interesting and stunning reflection.

First one for me. The colours are stunning.

Posted: **Sun Jul 30, 2006 9:08 pm**

first one as well... The reflection is beautiful and so are the colours.

Number 1. Colours and reflection are magnificent :-)

#1 for me as well although I really like the both of them.

1st one for me as well. love the colours and the beautiful reflection

Second one for me. Like Sheepie, I think the sun provides a focal point.

Posted: **Sun Jul 30, 2006 10:34 pm**

Both nice but I think #1 has the edge mainly due to the beautiful reflection.

Posted: **Sun Jul 30, 2006 10:40 pm**

#1 is my pick by far.

Nat I love your avatar, I hope you watched the game today

#2 tells a story whilst #1 is a landscape! In #2 I would clone out the top right cloud and crop the tree out on the right

John,

I like them both but the first one, like most others, is great due to the stunning colour of the clouds and the reflection in the water.

Cheers

i like the pre-sunrise shot much better ... but then again i am slightly partial to red :lol:

Thanks for the comments guys. In the second I had actually tossed a stone into the water to get the ripples, perhaps that was a mistake.

I like the first one - I really like the transition from orange/yellow to blue, with the pink/red clouds.
