Early Morning Photos

Having a digital camera certainly has changed the way I take photos. We had another great sunrise this morning and I celebrated by taking 45 photos in 25 minutes.



The first photo was black as I was in too much of a rush, some of the others are over exposed, some under exposed, and some are very blurry. Sometimes the exposure and/or blur was accidental and sometimes it was on purpose. I took a few at slow shutter speed and moved my camera when the shutter was open to get some interesting effects. I usually post my "art" shots on Flickr so have a look there in a couple of days if you are interested in seeing them. Meanwhile, here are two of the sunrise shots. This one is looking to the east-northeast:



And for this one I was pointing the camera east-southeast. (I have photos from every direction this morning as there was colour everywhere.)

I know how difficult it is --- you wqant to just click and click and click again - and then they turn out to be beautiful WOW!

The transition in colors always amazes me. How something so deep and red turns into the softest golds. It does take all of those photos to really get how the light changes so beautifully.

They are all superb, but that last photo (the east-southeast one) is dazzling stuff, the sky like an impressionist painting and those sumptuous golden clouds.

J, Thanks,

E, It was a great morning.

RA, Almost every photo has different light experiences and different colours. When I was in Africa, the sunrise colours often only lasted one or two minutes. It great to have 20 minutes to work in here in Canada.

L, Thank you!

K, Where is Monet when you need him?
