Chinook River Sunrise
I am back at Seaview, WA (between Ilwaco and Long Beach) and once agasin having a great time getting out and exploring the area even though I have been coming here for 70 years. I never tire of it.

Very nice scene Jim. Well captured. The low angle of the sun really helps show off the rising mist. Nice job!

Beautiful, Jim. I really like the implied sunrise from the golden mist and the image is superbly composed.

Beautiful capture, I love the golden mist and water and the including the foreground grasses!

Wonderful color and just the right amount of detail in both shadows and highlights. I noticed as I was scrolling down to read the comments that I like the composition even better when the bottom is cropped to a bit above the foreground grasses.

Cropped.

I like the crop, but I also like the original when comparing the two. They both work.
