Great idea for a shot but it seems to be a bit grainy.

I love moments like this. Ones that make you put the world in pause.
I'm sure you are getting comments about the noise in this. Neat image ahs a free downoad and can work wonders. I would also drop the levels a bit to make this richer and just to the point of making the clouds almost black.

not sure if you meant for the extra pixels in there or if it's just noise...but I will vote as though you did want it there! 8

A little noisey. Beautiful sunrise would be more interesting with something in the foreground.

Due to all the noise it seems like it was shoot with a high ISO instead of a low one.

I looks very noisy and the compostion isn't all that interesting.

Very pretty! Just a bit noise. Try using Neat Image. They have a very good trial version you can download. Just my thought.

I'm not too sure that the grain works well in the image.

It seems like there is a lot of grain or noise in the image. Maybe even very aggressive cropping? Maybe it is intentional? It doesn't seem to be helping the photo though, to me.
