I LOVE THESE COLORS! This is not the greatest picture I’ve ever composed, but I love the color and texture in this sunrise! I had to put it up!
I was on my way to work this morning, and as I turned the corner to head west I caught a view of the sky that I couldn’t see on my block. It was simply amazing! I stopped for a second and thought, “Man, I’m running late. I gotta get going.” I drove down the street a block, stopped at the stop sign, looked in the rearview mirror, and went, “I HAVE to shoot that!”
There was no one behind me, so I put it in park, jumped out, flipped the camera on, and squeezed off two quick shots. One was blurry, as I used slow shutter speed and wiggled it, but this one came out. The clouds were just amazing. Unbelievable! I wish I could have stood there for another 120 seconds, because two minutes later at another light I looked in the mirror, and the whole sky had gone brilliant gold. It was just one of those moments when everything looks beautiful.
