I like the sunrise shot...nice colours.
With the light house one...ever considered croping the dark clifts...a bit dominating in the shot...but certainly nice sky colours at dawn.

That's the funny thing, I only get up this early when on holidays... as I work from home, I normally only start at 9am which lets me have a 8am wake up.

The first one looks beautiful. The only way I could capture that, that early in the morning, is if I am coming home from the poker room.

Fantastic work, 3rd one especially.
I concur with the comment about cropping some of the cliffs out of the lighthouse shot

Very nice! Love the saturation of the colour! Those D70 pics sure look great!

I like the composition of the first and third picture specifically. Very emotive. Wish I was there!
