I always enjoy the quiet in these swamps while everything waits for the sun to rise.

Looks like a technically flawless image! I like the light, and the color that the grasses add. Wonder how you managed the flying bugs though?

Nice light, exposure, and composition on this one, Wayne. I especially like how the foreground grasses are lit.

Great moments are they? Just as the world is about to embrace either day or night. It all seems to hold it's collective breath. You translated that very well for me.

I like the sunlight right down through the center of this, and the lovely reflections. A good job on an almost ordinary (but still lovely) scene. Good comp. The feel of quiet and calm comes through......

The light is nice, warm, and relatively soft. It seems like it should be ripe for this type of photo. For some reason, though, the nice textures and the strong compositional choice are getting covered up by the contrast and the details. Maybe it's a product of web presentation, or maybe the overall contrast of the image could be more limited to a few key subjects.
