Good morning all, I am definitely a sunrise/sunset fan. I have a part of my smugmug galleries devoted to the subject. Sunrise over the sea or ocean is to me a fun challenge. So many composition items are needed to avoid a flat image; cropping to keep the best elements without large areas of simple color; careful experimenting to avoid noise in the initial dramatic low light of sunrise, working your exposure triangle to get the best image.
I had a great opportunity to work on composition and processing after an early morning in St Augustine Florida. Thought I'd post a few here and welcome the feedback on the photos to see how you all approach the problems of composition--rule of thirds, depth through foreground subjects--and processing--denoise, luminance, vibrance, contrast. I use my EOS R5 that I love for capture and Lightroom for processing.
