Kansas Fall Water Color
Making up for lost time, I got out this morning before going to work and shot this sunrise scene at Wyandotte County Lake. While I like this I'm wondering if it's too busy with not enough separation between elements. Your thoughts and comments would be appreciated.

5D, 24-70L @ 28mm, 1/5 @ f/16, -1 exp bias, ISO 200, polarizer, MF

Looks dang good to me Wayne. I think there is nice separation between fore and background. The reeds and water work well providing a good blend of entire image. Very nice blend of colors.
You best get up extra early every morning! :biggrin:

Wayne, this work for me. I think the different layers, foreground, lake, trees and sky with the moon make this shot. Great compostion on your part.

I agree, great colors and the I like the lines leading one into the photo. No crowding of the elements to me, it all flows.

That's really nice Wayne! I might tone down the sky just a bit, but I love the diagonal flowers and grasses in the foreground, along with the great reflection of the trees. :toast:
