I wish I could find scenery this nice 5 minutes from my house. South Texas is mostly just flat and ugly.
I'm with you on that one! It looks pretty beautiful Denise! So much space! I guess my advice for a wide-angle is solid advice for where I live, but your spot has this massive space! Really cool! Definitely worth it. And to be honest I think I like some clouds in a sky, instead of a whole clear sky.

Oh and I guess a ND filter wouldn't have made a good slow shutter-speed shot here, since there's so much space. At least I'm not seeing the potential.
By the way have fun on the cruise Mark [;)]

Re: Sunrises - What combo should I use?
Great shots, Denise! I like #3 best as well, the birds add some additional interest. A few clouds in a sunrise/sunset shot are better than a clear sky, IMO.
Re: Sunrises - What combo should I use?
Thanks, John :) This one would have been a keeper BUT what are those little circles on the lower right side above the water!!?? [:(] I noticed it on a number of the lighter shots ...that's why mostly the darker ones ended up as keepers!
