Sunrise Over the White River
Cursing circumstances, whatever they were, I was wide awake a little before 6:00 this morning. A glance out the window to check the weather revealed a low flying fog over the river and surrounding marsh. There was a potential for spectacular sunrise photos so I grabbed the camera and tripod and headed to the fishing bridge. Arriving just in time to capture this golden glow about ten minutes before the sun crested the horizon, I quickly set up the camera and took the shot. It required some Photoshop work to reveal the minimal detail in the brush and reeds at the left as well as a contrast adjustment to intensify the golden reflections against the blue sky. Maybe it was worth a couple hours of lost sleep. Even so, I am beginning a campaign to move sunrise to about 11:00 A.M. Anybody with me?

Some of the best pictures are seen as the sun comes up and there is so many birds about, beautiful picture, worth the loss of sleep.
