    Reflecting pool sunrise.

    What do you think of the colors and the composition?

    Re: Reflecting pool sunrise.

    I like it but I would clone out the lights on the right side (car lights?) and the one on the left, it would then bring all the attention to the main focus of the picture

    I like it MB. lovely rosey colours here. The perspective definitely takes ones eye difrectly to the monument and arond the photo. I think it's a simple yet effective shot.

    Re: Reflecting pool sunrise.

    I like the idea, but for it doesn’t have enough impact for me. The strong diagonals point all at the same point in the shot, also one of the strongest points (think “thirds”), yet that main focal point is rather small. I think the shot would have worked better for me in portrait format and closer to the monument. The monument also works much stronger on the longer verticals of a portrait format.
