Once the sun was up, I was back in a shooting mood. The sky was so clean, the light was so clean, I wanted to just take clean clicks. To make the image, I used a polarizer incorrectly on purpose to create that shading in the sky. Kinda like it.

Then I wanted to make a simple clean B&W. I shot a lot with the P7000 while making these clicks. It was a beautiful morning and I didn’t want to complicate it with “photography,” just make some images. It was great!

To be honest with you, after that greeting and killer image with no more then a simple click, the rest of the sunrise was pretty much a snooze. See what I mean?

So to make something of it, I simple processed the top image as a 1 image HDR to come up with this click. It added some extra drama which I liked.

Not feeling the love in the light, before leaving the slippier then snot rocks, I did a 5 image HDR. I don’t like this at all. Gave it a try, the worst that could happen is delete.

The magic of light AFTER the sun is gone! The sun is history but its effect is still present. It’s bouncing off the atmosphere being completely diffused and softened. For this scene, it is killer light!

For me, to finish it off, the camera was not only set to Vivid and Cloudy WB, but the exp comp was -2.5 stops. Simple, clean, gorgeous!

The Octoberfeast in ME is great…the pumkins are incredible. This is a 1200lbs monster painted by the illustrator for Stephen King. Stand, click and smile!

What a glorious morning! There was a little of everything this day, good shooting, good friends and good coffee. Here’s a very simple click shooting up the river towards the sunrise. Like a moth to a flame, we photographers gravitate to the rising and setting of the sun. And when it all comes together easily, all things in the world are right!
