These were taken bright and early yesterday morning at my local beach. As it was going to be a stinker of a hot day i thought the sun might give some good colour at sunrise. Nature didnt dissapoint! These have both had a levels and curve adjustment only.
Thanks for looking,
Nic

That is gorgeous - I haven't seen a decent sunset for a while, so I am quite jealous of this one!

Second one is a peach, I find the first has just too many conflicting elements, the second, your eyes flow comfortably through the image.
Nice work :)

I like the second one for the colour bouncing off the water. Nice work.

Yes only levels and curves..i like to use curves to "pop" the colours too.
Thanks for the comments:)

Another vote for #2 as like Les, I think that simplifying the composition has given it more impact.
