sunday sunrise

Parker River - Newbury, Massachusetts

So - after scouting sunrise locations on Saturday,

I checked my weather app - no rain, and sunrise at 7:16 am

Me: Sunrise tomorrow is at 7:16 - that's not too bad

Greg: Cool, have fun

Me: What? You're not coming? But you were up at 6 this morning

Greg: Okay, well - maybe

Me: I need you to make the coffee, because, you know - I have to get dressed

(guys don't have to get dressed - right?)

Anyway - we got the details all squared away (no arm twisting involved)

and at 6:30 am we set out - hot coffee in hand :-)

and as it turns out

there's a lot more to taking photos at sunrise than scouting locations at the wrong time of day

and showing up at the right time...

- yeah - I really should have known that...

- as we watched the sky brighten and turn pink on the horizon

the sun rose behind us - hidden by trees

but the blues and pinks were so pretty, anyway

and the reflections on the river...

and after packing up - I walked across the bridge to the other side of the river

and found where the sun was rising...

live and learn

This weekend, we "fall back"
making sunrise around 6:15 (or something ridiculous like that)
so, I'll probably not repeat this exercise for a while
in the meantime, I'll do a little studying

Have a great weekend - and for those of you in the USA
- enjoy that extra hour!
