So sorry for not commenting before: this one deserves a book. Not a couple of words!
A wonderful silence. I love the crisp focus, those wonderful tones as they are changing.
Hard to impress me with a landscape photo, but something in this photo makes it very different. This photo is not as tranquil as it looks when you first see it. I am waiting for something to happen. Something exciting! All I have to do is wait and watch.

Well there we are - Happy New Year!

Justice is served and another DPC conundrum is now resolved.

For what it's worth: perfect composition, lighting, subject and tangible sense of the title. Love it. I'm beginning to regret my vote of '1'.

8.3 for chrissakes people - there is no way this shot is worth a hair over 7.95 :P.

This certainly is rarified air. Spectacular shot and an amazing score to boot - I couldn't help but notice your comment to the third place image that went something along the lines of 'I bet you can't wait for this challenge to end' - I'm surprised you managed to refrain from adding ... ' but don't get too excited - cos I got the blue locked down ...nahnahnahna :P'.

Congrats Skip

I was routing you'd get a blue ribbon. It's seriously a fantasic picture. I gave you a 9, now I wonder why on earth didn't I give you a 10. Maybe it's because I've never given anyone a 10. It's flawless, I can't say anything to really to improve the shot. Although, I find it hard to believe someone gave you a 1.

Wow, this is a truly amazing photograph. It has such a masterpiece painting feel to it. The colors, composition, reflections, and the starlights in the sky just all work together to make a photo that begs to be blown up to poster size and mounted in a really nice frame ona wall someplace. Honestly, if this doesn't ribbon, there is something wrong with this site. Thanks for taking a picture that is truly inspiring.

Nice to also have the stars on the night sky as contrast.

Cool picture
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/17/2005 01:09:16 PM
Beautiful photo. I like the colors very much. Placement of the horizon and the house in the frame show a very good sense of design and balance. The direction of the camera relative to the rising sun does a nice job catching the dawn's gradient sky. I also like that you caught some stars ... they add a sense of scale to the photo that would be missing otherwise. In short, beautiful setting, beautiful time of day, beautifully captured. I expect it to ribbon.

This image, IMO, is far and away the best of the entries. The oevrall sense of deep & tranquil pre-dawn hours is almost overwhelming. Technically is is exceptionally good. If this does not take the blue, there's no justice in DPC :-)

it's a bit underexposed... just a touch. I know you wanted it to look dark, but i think some more detail of the reflection on the pond would be killer. The sky looks real nice, and the image certainly fits the title.

Nce size and placement of house. Great reflections and terrific sky. There is good and bad about the trees that make them not add or take away from the shot. Overall very nice. I like the amount of sky.

Could this be a "Bear Music" classic? If not, it's great, love the pastel shades and the calm ambience of early morning. 10

Is it just my imagination, or is there enough light to actually see color in (many of) those trees? Anyway, it's a beautiful shot!

Very good photo. The gradients are very pelasing, the stars, and the house and its reflection on the water. I keep getting drawn to the house. Strong composition. 10
