I'm not even going to try to pick a fave, as they're all really nice.

Cool Stan! The blues and reds in the last one are especially great!

Interesting shots Stan. Way to get out for the first sunrise. Like the others said, I like the last photo too. The comp and colors are sweet. I also really like #2, the clouds and color reflecting in the water make it stand out from the others IMHO. The only thing I would change to it would be just a slightly tighter crop. Well done!

I really like the pastels in #2.
IThe foreground is best in the last one, but want to combine it with the sky in #3.

Nice collection on what looks like a frigid morning Stan.

I REALLY like the second one. I like the soft light, and it's got an intriguing, surreal, desolate feel.

Great colors Stan! #3 and #4 are my favs.

Nice work Stan!!! #1 is a grabber but I really like them all. I had the same thought of shooting the New Year sunrise but... well, too much champ pain! :biggrin: so slept in!

Cool colors. I was on the way to the slopes and watching the clouds light up over south park. Looks like it was nice in Pueblo!
