Please pay no attention to the watermark I did not realized I made it so darn big untill I had closed photoshop LOL

#1

#2

memorizing. I could stare at the 1st one for quite some time. In Fact I did.

The only thing that I may have done different is to move the sun to the left or right a little and move the horizon down to the bottom 3rd of the photo instead of right in the middle.

I love the colors of the 1st photo as opposed to the 2nd.

Nice work.

fix the horizon in #1 and you've got yourself a winner!

#2 is ok too!

 

[ShawnS]

Yea, good pictures overall, i would have prefered some type of foreground subject, but still very good, not overexposed as most people that post this type of pics is. Also, fix horizon? I would but nothing to do that with here.

straightened out horizon

The horizon is off in both of them. Not just #1.

The horizon is off in both of them. Not just #1.

nope, checked in photoshop, second one isnt off by much, couldnt find it actually.

 

[robertwsimpson]

The cloud ceiling makes it look like the horizon is not level.

The pictures where taken on a cruise boat and yup #1 the horizon is off I forgot to adjust it oops.

Anyway thank you all for the responses.

Really love #1 really want to try a photo like this some time..

can i ask if you use'd anything to get that like it is?

 

[LaFoto]

"Use anything"?
What would that mean? Take in something? Narcotics?

When the sun rises like this, all you have to do is be there and take this photo! I mean, in the case of beautiful sunrises, the beauty is JUST THERE for you.

Keep the aperture small enough, that's all I can think. A tendency towards underexposure will help, too, as the sun gets very bright very soon. Brings the colours out!

I like them both. The exposure and colors are nice.

I think that your horizons are too close to center. Cropping off a good bit of the water will really bring the focus on the beautiful sky and cloud texture, and elminate, as instinct said, the need for a foreground object.
