There's one thing that always makes an image special, and that's when you catch the sunshine coming through the clouds in rays. And I love the additional layer of cloud down on the hillside.

Such a beautiful sight to see the sun rising in most circumstances but in this lovely picturesque setting with the rays spilling out of the cloud formation it becomes even more so my sweet Nicki. Gorgeous early morning muted tones and excellent clarity of detail amonst the ships in the harbour. Well done to you my lovely friend. A great big gorilla HUUUUUUUG and always my very best wishes for you.......Ray

I like a lot the tones of the colors Nicole, the very dark water gives a lot on the atmosphere, and the feelings that brings to the watcher, I also like the shape of the ground here... between the two sides of the water, looks like the thiner town in the world... a good "plus" by the sun rays on the dark clouds to add even better mood.
