Title: Light

This is all about the light as it is reflected off the objects shortly before sunrise.

Calm and nice, with good light. Looks a bit greenish to me.

Difficult light but the result is very nice. There's enough details in the shadows and it looks very natural. As for the greenish look that Paulo writes about, I don't know… Initially I had the same reaction but when I tried to WB this shot, I get a more orange sky and loose the cyan/blue tints...
I'd keep it as it is!

Very tranquil. I see a little more green than might be desirable. It would probably be the work of a couple of minutes in PS to get rid of the cables on the upper right, and I think it would be worth the effort.

Jens,
I'm curious.  Why the 6ND filter?

To get the water smooth. Didn't work as well as I'd hoped, but 6stop is the strongest I have for in the size for this lens.

That's what I thought too, until I took them out. It felt like something was missing, so I put them back in. The benefits of non-destructive editing!
