Reflected Light At Dawn

Shot at 5.33am, in the still of the morning, although a few blades of grass moved. The sun was rising to my left, and the light was just becoming effective for this shot. This is a full frame as cropping changed the character of the image.

Not too bad Brian. I certainly voted it MUCH higher than 5.7, but considering how brutal they vote in these Free Studies, I guess it didn't finish too bad.

I like it alot.

Looks HDR-ish. Tone mapped or something. Highly saturated tans and browns. Debating whether I like it or not. 6 for now.

Love that reflection, and the perfect stillness of this mirror reflection image.
Quite magical and so calming, and hope this scores well for you.....
