I guess I prefer the first. Very nice either way. The water is pretty tilted, though.

Thanks SpecialK - I usually tilt my shots even with the K5 level - I'll have another look.

Thanks Bob - I can see that - it's a long way from the ocean but it does have a ghostly feel for sure.

Thanks Stefan - #2 appears to be the preferred one by most.

A impressive mountain. Must be beautiful to witness the weather and the light creating all sorts of wonderful sights on a early morning.

I love 'em all, Dave - that brooding monolith emerging from the clouds is just terrific. Super job, buddy.

Really cool shots! I prefer the second one, but also love the color version. The mountain looks almost suspended in midair.

Thanks Remco - indeed when you get a spot 1/2 or so before sunrise it is spectacular to watch the changes in light.
