You're so right Ryan, you've got a great lighting effect on this picture. A superb shot.

Certainly worth the effort of getting up for the sunrise! This is just lovely. The lighting and pose and setting are fabulous.

I don't know why, but for some reason the photo doesn't seem as sharp on here as it does on flickr at the same size?

Great pose, setting, and lighting, well done. As for the sharpness being better on flickr: It might be the image size, as the gallery software resizes images that are too big. I find it best to resize to roughly 800*600 or 900*675.
