Beautiful, Melissa ... my favorite time of day. A very lovely composition with the rail pulling one's eye into the beauty of the morning light. Shhhh ... do you hear the birds?

Wow, fantastic shot. I really like they way you have captured the foreground and made it the focal point. The wood textures are great. Good work.

That’s really lovely . . perfect stillness and the shallow DoF really makes a contribution here.

I agree with everyone that this is excellent. To me the best is the fence, which gives us such a strong sight-line into the picture. Most would have aimed for that sunrise, but you wisely saw more to the image. Well done.

Gorgeous! Good idea to blur the horizon, I usually try to get it crisper, but you gave me an idea.
