| Beautiful, except the silhouette, powerlines etc. aren't as awe-inspiring. |

| Sun has been up a while. You need to get up earlier to call it a new day. |

Lens flare is unfortunate. Try cropping to just the sun and the beginnings of the
beams, and boost contrast. |

| This is beautiful. I love how the houses are just shadows and I love how the sun peeks out of the clouds. The sun seems quite high into the sky for it to be a very new day. I'm thinking still before noon, but do you have a horrizon? I know we have too many trees here to get a good horizon, so maybe it's not possible, but I think a horizon would add to the feeling of newness. Don't think you could have got such a beautiful shot of the sun coming out of the clouds on a horizon though, so it's a toss up. I like your photo. Great job and good luck in the challenge. |

| Actually, an old day, this isn't a sunrise or dawn... |

| Because the sun is high in the sky it doesn't really say "new" to me. Looks to be about 11 or 12 o'clock. But I guess if you just woke up it would be a new day....so I guess I can't say it's not new. I think this could be a more interesting shot of this beautiful sky with an increase in brightness and contrast and to point the camera higher to eliminate the dark distractions at the bottom. I think you are well on your way to a good shot here. Great colors. |

| This photo would have worked better if you would have cropped out the houses |

| Love the sky. I'd have cropped it a bit more to take out the building s and power lines; I often have the same dilemma when faced with a beautiful cloud formation matched with an inopportune skyline. |

I like this, but the bottom [Telephone pole etc] is a distraction, could of cut that out.
Still it's nice a good capture. Score-6 Kee |

| bump up the saturation and crop out the rooftops would be my only suggestion. nice shot |

| This would have been a great shot had the sun been much lower in the sky (I think); just peeping over the roof perhaps. It looks too much like deliberate over exposure to create the atmosphere, rather than naturalâ€Â¦ Good shot, good ideaâ€Â¦ |

| if you only take the sun part it will be most beauty., but its ok 8 |

| good idea, but i think a lower sun with a little more orange would of been better (but i'm no expert, by any means) |

Love the sky and clouds but I think the silhouettes here are ugly. They don't add to the stunning sky at all. I'd either crop out the lower part completely or look for a tree or something more striking to use as the foreground silhouette.
I'd have scored 7 for the same shot cropped to lose all the buildings.

Dropping the exposure another stop or two would help bring out the clouds or some simple adjustment in photoshop would have easily helped this image...
If you would like to see what I mean / get some help, PM me...

Also getting up earlier helps... but I know this is hard :-) |

| nice picture, but sunrise would have matched the title better |

| I liked the sun rising between the clouds, but I think it would have been better if you just cut the bottom part. |

| This would be better if there were no buildings at all I think |

| Maybe if you had left the roof tops and powerlines out? Beautiful sun breaking through the clouds, though :) |

| please loose the houses and cables, ad more contrast and saturation and we have a winner! |

| This is taken to late to say "a new day" the sun is to high |

| You should have cropped out the building tops, they distract from the sky. Or you could have put them on a "1/3" line. |

| Really neat sunrise, but I would have liked it more with the bottom cropped out. |
