On vacation taking some sunrise photos. The last one is a splash in the water, but I didn't want to start another thread. C&C wanted. Don't be afraid to tear me apart!!!

The first one is the strongest of this set.

My exact thoughts, would you change anything though?

I would lose the watermark, but I know that's not what you are asking.

For my personal collection i don't have the watermark. Only in the public, even though it doesn't do anything:lmao:
Thanks

The horizon isn't level on 2 and 3.

It does do something. It distracts the viewer. But, whatever.

I would use something to brighten the foreground.

Yeah first is best because it's balanced and has better saturation.

#1 ia nice to look at. the others don't do anything for me. i like the colors but the composition is off. i don't like the uneven horizon lines either. #1 is sweet tho. good job!

I agree that 1 is the strongest, 3 and 4 have too much in the foreground and don't seem like you were focusing on the sunrise. I like 5 but i would crop out the bottom portion because it is distracting.

I agree with all.. First one is the best. But I cant give you adivce, since I am still learning!

Thanks for all of your advice, I really appreciate it.
