Heres two shots from this morning. C&C welcome. I have a favorite of the two... but wanted to see what composition you guys liked better. I did not have much time to get this shot before the light went away and it became 'normal' on the water again... I left my house 30 minutes later than I was planning so I could not get to downtown Atlanta for a city shot as I hoped with the awesome sunrise :(

the time is what i think it was, i didnt check the data to double check.
25 seconds

Wow, tough choice. I like them both, and the orange reflecting from the sky adds a lot. I'm leaning towards #1 though.

Both shots are fine.
My fav is the 2nd one.
It's a tad darker, the riverbank doen't show so much detail and the streaming water get's all the attention.

It's #2 for me. KUDOS to you.


Have plenty of Canons, enough ammo, enough to blow 'em to "L". Now, I just have to learn to aim.

#1, would love to see and even longer exposure to really make the water milky.

As stated before, both are good shots, but I am partial to the second one, Just like the compostion better. More forground interest to anchor the bottom edge.

The crisp fallen leaves in the water on #1 provide a little detail in the water, which attracts me. Also, the tones in the water seem a bit more contrasty in 1...so I lean that way. Both are very nice though!
