Your best so far I think.  It has a real sense of the exotic, I'm guessing it's not Morcambe Bay.

I love the way the sun streams in line with the nut (it is a nut?) and the sky is reflected in the wet sand.  Lovely.

This is one awesome, beautiful photo Michelle. You have captured the sunrise perfectly. I love the way it reflects of the water and leads the eye into the boulder in the foreground. It thoroughly deserves to make the scroller. My new fave, well done.

I hate when that happens.....You get the camera all set up to photograph the sunrise then some smart Alex kid throws a ball into the frame

Seriously though - a fantastic shot!

Lovely composition Michelle. Very atmospheric. Beautiful colours and reflections. Did you resist booting the coconut half way down the beach afterwards? Well done on making the scroller. Much deserved. Smile

A great seascape or sunrise photo whichever way you desribe it, it's beautifully composed. I like the coconut in the foreground and the suns reflection on it and around it which leads to a great sky with a gorgeous sun rising, lovely reflections off the sea, an early morning get up was well worth it ~ very well captured and Bol.
