Ennerdale water sunrise Now with added shot

[alfbranch]

I went out this morning to shoot the sunsrise at Ennerdale. I was much later than I wanted to be due to road closures and having to divert my route. The weather forecast I looked at last suggested 4 mph winds so a reflection may be possible so I was not expecting waves.


I arrived in time but had a very short window before the cloud obscured the light. These shots are about 4 minutes apart.

Such beautiful colours in the sky on the first but I think I prefer the second as it’s so cold and wintery .

I like the first, even though it has warm colours, the water looks rough, wintery and cold.

Lovely shots. First for me. That sky this morning was amazing - shame I only saw it in the car on the way to work!

Great shots, that water looks wild! I prefer the second one for the more muted colours.

Thanks Tom
I was worried I was only going to see it from the car and the walk to the lake I missed great light before I got there and less than 10 minutes after getting there.

Thanks Andy
The water was wild and I thought I hadnt got the second shot right when i first looked a the RAW file but it looked like this so I am happy with it.

Thanks

Thanks Peter

Thanks Stuart Its the one I have should have selected originally I suppose based on the comments I recieved

I am going to say I prefer the 1st - the closeness of the wave brings your into the action more and gives the sense of the incoming water coming in.
