At first I thought, hey, so much black at the bottom, but that was before I had scrolled fully down to the bottom of your frame, and then showed your reflection and I thought "hey" again, but now all differently, like in "Hey, now this is a nice addition to the sunrise shot!!!" What a wonderful sky!!!

Hehe. Thanks guys.
It's a tough place to shoot to get a silhouette and enough light at the bottom. It's on the canal and there's buildings running down either side of it and also a bridge with buildings that run across it. That's why it's so dark at the bottom. Maybe will take my tripod out there and get a Few pics at different exposures and make a HDR, might come out really well.
