Absolutely beautiful, Jagdeep!  The composition and lighting are just great.  I am new to NPN, but have admired your work for some time.

I only ask this because I'm curious.  The little blue object to the right of the island in the background; is that a bird?

All the best,
Raoul

Looks like a lovely, peaceful sunrise.  Having the trees in the background almost black and white due to the fog/mist does a great job of letting that main tree stand out.

Beautiful sunrise image Jagdeep.  Location, location, location right?  I think this is prettier than your earlier image from this location.  Now the pervious was was awesome too, but I think more because of the added elements of the wildlife; almost more about a sense of place, than a sunrise.  here,  this image stands strongly as a beautiful sunrise and silhouette.

Not a nit, but just wondering if you have any where the sun and tree aren't merging?

Beautiful image, Jagdeep, nice composition and very balanced. The soft golden tones are wonderful.

This is very nice work Jagdeep. This has an Asian look to it: gentle delicate lines and muted colors. I like how the entire image has the same color cast to it. A tranquil scene. Nice reflections. I just noticed that you do have people in it but they're virtually unnoticeable. Good work.

This is so peaceful. The light is perfect and you handled it very well. This will make a wonderful print. Well done!

Composition feels very balanced.  And just right contrast between sharper detail in large tree against bgd ones.  The light works well too.
