I like this one too. Makes me feel cold though, and I've had about enough cold so far this year. Gorgeous capture and I love the sunburst.

It's a good shot Frank. I love the position of the sun and the starbust through the platform. Emotional? Yes it gives a cold but peaceful feeling. It reminds me of theblues atmospheric shots. Can't say I'd change a thing.

Thank you for the kind words; yes it's a single exposure, not a composite. It was actually a grab shot as I was about to leave (bloody crisp morning and I was freezing): shot 18 frames over the space of about 5 minutes from a couple vantage points as the sun rose, and liked that one the best.

Cheers

I like the detail, color, and silhouette as well. Very nicely done. The fog adds a very nice effect to the picture.

Very dramatic. I like the tonal range in this. Is it a single exposure?
