Snowdonia sunrise, North wales from today · **1 Like**

Early start this morning (4.30) to catch the sunrise, good job I arrived early as only managed 40 minutes of decent lighting until the cloud descended, here are the shots, tried a mono conversion

Here we go again, reflections. I have not seen many reflections I didn't like. These are great really liking 1 & 2. #3 is good but? TFS, Simon. Cliff

You were blessed with good light and no breeze, it makes the early start seem worthwhile, perhaps not at the time.

Great captures, well done, home and back to bed.

Gorgeous! I like the b/w version a lot, but I think I like the color version just a wee bit more... And I can't pick between no 1 and no 3, both equally nice and ought to be hanging on a wall...

Very well done. Clean, crisp, nicely composed.

Great light , even better subject matter. Excellent shots.

Thanks for the comments...I've been trying for shots in this location with both snow and reflections for 5/6 yrs now and the conditions have never quite been with me, I was delighted to have the 40 minutes of good light and little breeze this time, the following part of the day was dull/low cloud and increasing breeze

Very nice Simon. I think the first is my favorite although the B&W is also interesting. I do like the color though as it adds something more. You should be very pleased with all three.
