These were all taken in Bushy Park just before dawn on different mornings over the last few weeks

Good set Stephen. Liking #3, very atmospheric.
Bushy lake is brilliant for sunrises, just wish I could get up early enough.
 
2+3 for me, they are gorgeous. If I had to pick one, in would be 2.

I like the first but I think there's just a little too much blocked shadow with the tree as it's so big in the frame. It's still a lovely image though.
 
Nice set with some great light in different conditions.
Just one thing though, these are not before "dawn", which starts about 90 minutes before sunrise at this time of year. Before sunrise would be a better description ;)
 


I prefer all of them…
cool takes and expressive renditions!
 
Absolutely fabulous, all of them. Very hard to pick a favourite as they're all so good but I'd plump for number 1. Has an eerie 'world just waking' feel to it. Well done
 
Would be very happy with any of them but no1 for me as , for me, it looks more natural
 
Great set, hard to pick a favourite but if I had to I really like the cool tones in the 2nd
 
Thanks everybody. I am amazed just how different the light is at sunrise from one day to the next.
 
love 3/4 last one is my favourite if it was used with a filter so the water is smoothed out.

3rd one is that HDR or something? looks too flat tonally.

but rest looks amazement!

tbh 1st one has such nice framing with the tree etc great work!

Edit: looking at your first pic, i would raise the saturation and vibrancy to make that photo stand out on that scale anyway. great composition!

2nd one could do with a bit of crop so less water and more tree lines...still good catch... love it

No 2 is my favourite, the light is lovely. If I were being picky, I'd crop into the water a little to make the trees more prominent.
 
No.1 is very nice and the best of the set imho. Looks like some cracking mornings you've had there.
