Thank you. I appreciate your favorable review very much.

Comment from Herschy
Very nice overall composition

The lighting and colours are great. There is just enough sun reflected onto the shore to form a pathway into the main picture.

Great initial impact.

Beautiful shot with lovely colors, clarity, details, depth of field, and story telling ability. This has good initial impact, too. Love the beautiful sky and the reflection on the water...lovely shot.

Comment from Richard Swarbrick
Terrific scene and presented so nicely here. Always a favorite of mine this never fails to produce amazing scenes for us all. This one is a wonderful example also. The gold colors are warm and soft and the foreground rocks are well placed for the scene.

One sees many sunsets and sunrises in photographic comps but this one has to go to the top of the bunch

Very well balanced and composed and overall very pleasing...Rob

Beautiful, well composed scene. The colors are so muted, yet retain their vibrancy. I like the shadow and light play on the waves and beach. Donkeyoatey

Thats a rather spectular sun rise you have captured, such amazing multidude of colours within in one frame.~
With fabulous composition to frame the reflection between the rocks highlighting your creative/artistic talents to see the moment.~Jinni.~

Thank you so much Jinni. I'm lucky to live at the Yucatan. I never get tired to admire our sky and our Caribbean sea.

Very great impact. I love the sunset and the ocean. The colors are subtle and romantic. I love the way the sunlight comes across the ocean. Its not in a straight line showing that the ocean is always in motion. Over all great picture. Thanks for sharing.
