We wanted to capture a formal Victorian picnic overlooking the the lake and thought a sunrise disembarking from a rowboat was a suitable idea, replete with wicker basket, tartan rug, champagne and cake.

We are not accustomed to formal expression, but felt this more in keeping with Victoriana.

At the preferred entry of 1200px I hope you can still make out the rowboat and path, the intention is that you enjoy the sunrise, but are then able with your eye to disembark from said rowboat, follow the path up the bank ad then rest awhile and picnic in the early morning as the day begins.
