    Liquid gold this Stuart – what a magnificent texture and colour – made me think of white gold in fact.

    Well now, this is worthy of a huge grin and slap on the back for good measure. What an awesome result, Stuart! Love the golden glow, the look of molten metal over the rocks, the detail in the pebbles in the foreground and the motion blur in the water itself…..this is a GOOOOOOD one!

    beautiful Stuart…
    the coloured pebbles in the foreground, illuminated by the low rising sun lead me to the
    whisky water with the slightly slower shutter, and up out through the distant and what seems never ending ocean to the low lying clouds with plenty of character.
    beautiful warm tones to this shot too – it is a golden dawn !

    This is wonderful Stuart… really dreamy.
    Actually, its almost like looking down on some alien planet, viewing all of the clouds with just a few mountains peeking through… or maybe thats just me!
    Love the horizon line… so well defined with those dark clouds above. An instant favourite.

    A beautiful sunrise/seascape composition, the long exposure has given that pleasing visual effect on the sea and the overall scene is exposed perfectly, well done indeed,
