    Firstly.. I just have to say Great Title!
    More importantly though is this stunning image. I love the light and colour in this… the hint of the yellow light in the centre is very nice and makes you think the boat is heading off somewhere brighter…
    Fantastic effect with the water… like a fog rolling in.

    The long exposure on the water makes me feel like I am looking at a slice of cake….in so much as the whole shot has a solid, tipped on its edge feel due in the main to the solidity of the water….do you know what i mean? I like the blueish tinge to the rocks and the colour in the sky is nice…but even better is the way it appears as a muted echo in the sea….the textures offered by the pebbles is great to. MASSIVE IMAGE, AWESOME WORK…....WELL DONE!

    One day I’m going to go to the effort that you do and get up super early so that I can see what the world looks like as day breaks! I think I’ve only ever seen it through an alcoholic glaze. Very cool that you were able to get that ferry sitting there, it makes for a shot that is totally unique with those colours as well!!

    Very beautiful Stuart – I particularly like the pebbly beach in the foreground – lovely contrast in texture and colour to the rest of this silky loveliness.
