Yes sunrise, but surprisingly the sun was rising behind me rather than in front of the camera.

Thanks everyone. Yes, I was lucky with this shot. I had no clue what I was going to get when I arrived at this spot.

A surreal set of dynamic relationships here – so many dimensions and layers when you keep looking at it – the foreground circular water movement/patterns/energies captured, that wackky suspended angled cloud throwing the composition off into another balancing sphere act and spearing behind is the peachy glow of radiating light …. one could go on and on … Just yum! :-)

Brilliant and natural composition. The swirly movement of a broken wave set a spectacular stage for the grand show above!
Well done…
