This is a very stark and dramatic scene. The silhouette of the leafless tree creates a great element especially when contrasted by the soft glow of the rising sun and the dark blue of the waning darkness. Well seen Fred and a good capture ~ Steve

You found the perfect shaped tree to silhouette against the striking colors of this African blue hour of twilight dawn. The colors are beautiful and the contrast of the dark foreground and the tree make for a dramatic looking scene.

Love the colors that you have captured. The angle of the shot of this tree skyline and colorful sky view is great. The clarity is great. The capture of the light is great. The image is balanced and eye appealing to the viewer. Good eye and great job overall

This is an extraordinary view of the first daylight emerging at the horizon. The colors are breathtaking. The silhouette of the barren trees and their irregular shaped branches emphasize the sky colors. The trees are well placed into the frame. The photo is balanced.

I love the bare trees in silhouette against the dramatic morning sky, beautiful warm orange tones at the horizon rising up into the dark sky with shades of pink and lavender and a dark blue . This is of course well focused, the image is clear, well used available light. What a beautiful way to start your day! Well presented!

A beautiful image with great saturated colors. I like the stark look of the barren trees silhouetted against the predawn sky. The composition is excellent.
