I normally get up around 4:15 am every morning.  Don’t ask me why, I just do.  I love to read at that time of day, work on photos and get set for the day ahead.  Anyway I decided this morning that I would go down to the river and shoot a sunrise.

When I got down to the river walk there was no good image to shoot to use as a silhouette against the rising sun.  I took the above image without any enhancement, the sky was really that blue.  Well almost that blue 🙂

So it was clear that I hadn’t done my home work and didn’t know where exactly was the best place to be for the sun rise.  I also wasn’t dressed properly and I nearly froze.    Finally the sun came up and I didn’t get one decent shot except for the first one of this post.  Pretty sad when you consider I shot 94 images.  Good thing they are free.  Sort of 🙂

I walked around the welcome center and saw a bunch of tugs in the harbor with the rising sun shining on them.  I liked this image but I was so cold by the time I took this I could hardly feel the camera in my hand.

Thanks for stopping by.
