Soft Morning Hues
Sunrise on the ocean, is a beautiful look with the mist rising and the sky and sea taking on the colors of the sun. Get up before 5 and take a walk if you live near a beach, it’s so worth it.

Very beautiful shot Mary! I love the yellow hues of the horizon!

I love the way that the sunlight bends in with the sky, sea and sand. It’s a very colourful, still and peaceful photo.

Elizabeth Bravo
Mary this did turn out wonderful. I read your journal about it…..I am with you, some turn downs don’t seem to make sense in the groups. But I am still very new in many respects and I think my problem is in not really wanting to read the rules. Ah well. I love this very much, Great job!!!!
Mary Campbell replied
Thanks Elizabeth, I think their is some of both that goes on. But I do think people who send bubblemails to all about their opinions of what is obvious to them (when they are so obviously wrong!) need a bit of education as to what makes for good group team work. LOL.
Agnes McGuinness
Mary, I just read your journal about this. It’s a gorgeous piece of art. Great work! This sort of thing happens in groups all the time. I had one turned down for being overprocessed, which it wasn’t, and another accepted in the same group which had quite a lot of post processing done. I just shrug, and move on. Agnes xx
Mary Campbell replied
Thanks Agnes, I normally do the same.. I just get tired of these negative bubblemails that go out to everyone from egotistic people that imply they are justified in their actions and assume they are right. I thought the before and after might wake them up to their own faliability… LOL.. In the span of life’s challenges none of this is that important to me.. it’s more the principle of the thing than anything else.

COngrats on a well deserved feature. love the pastels. DOnt live close to the beach however we get over to the coast and love to walk on the beach although have never got up early, always walked at sunset.. great shot..’‘Di
Mary Campbell replied
I was lucky for a few years I lived on an Island 2 minutes from the nearest beach. But now I have an hours drive. It was easier getting their for sunrise when you live 2 minutes away.

Peggy Berger
Oh now this is great … we go to Folly Beach every year for a week, is that where this is taken by chance? Absolutely fab!! Now I can’t wait to get out and look at the rest of your gallery (still on DIALUP at home!)—you are very talented!
Mary Campbell replied
Thanks Peggy, no this is a SC public beach that’s part of Hunting Island State Park. I lived for a few years on Fripp Island in SC and this was just over the bridge, so I use to go over there quite alot. A lovely state park with good camping facilities and rental cottages. Thanks for the nice compliment.
Jan Piller
Wow – now this is where I would like to be right now! Gorgeous!
Mary Campbell replied
Yes, me too I’ve moved away so no more moring runs on the beach..LOL! Thanks for the comments, love your work.
