Sunrise and Fisherman

The sunrise this morning was a study in charcoal, pink, and yellow. Quite different from the other day.

The fisherman this morning was standing in a shaft of light from the sun sparkling on the water. Do you like him better in color or B&W?

The first one in particular! I think I prefer the color shot of the fisherman.

You have captured an image of what would be my husband's dream life ..... a beach on which to fish every morning.

at this duplex which says

Live The Life You Have Imagined

I don't know if you can see it in this shot...but it will show if you're looking on a phone where you can enlarge the screen.

These are all beautiful.

I cannot choose which fisherman photo I like better! They are both stunning, for different reasons.

The B&W has the great silvery color I love; the water's surface almost looks curved upward.

The color one has .........well, the colors! They are refreshing and very lovely.

in the fisherman shot which gives it that curved appearance in the B&W. I took a lot of shots of the fisherman this am (from the deck) trying different frames both horizontal and vertical and trying to capture different wave formations.

I am definitely having a lot of fun playing with my camera!
