 The same little island as in my recent Negative Space entry but this time in the morning. The sunrise wasn't as impressive as I wished for but I think there is still some nice colours in this. I did have to photoshop it a lot to get something close to what I was trying for!

I love the colors in this. It makes you look way in the back to see everything. The clouds make this picture. Good job.
