#3 is a great composition. How fortunate to get that rower in the picture.

Thanks :) Actually there was a crazy amount of rowers - I just had to wait for one to be in the right position.

A little PP and crop to remove some wasted space - as they were still a reasonable distance away.

I like #2 and won't suggest a 4:10 crop, eliminating some of the sky.

And I like #3, but would also trim the bottom a bit.

Getting up for sunrise is also an accomplishment for me! so good job!! and thanks for sharing these.

I like 3 the most. They are all beautiful, but I'm a little biased towards 3 cause I;m a rower myself. Fantastic captures, though. beautiful colors and composition.

I think I'm partial to #2 because of the blue in the sky. All are really nice pictures.

Thanks for all the nice feedback - it's really encouraging and makes me consider that getting up before dawn might have been worth it :wink Just ask any of my family what a grumpy ass I am getting up early in the morning :rofl

I may even do it again!!! :giggle
