July Sunrise
Originally uploaded by ChathamGardens
It has been a long time since I have enjoyed the sunrise, mostly because the weather has not cooperated but also because the sunrise is so outrageously early this time of year. Today it was at 5:12a and the best pictures are often the ones taken at least 30 minutes before the sun actually reaches the horizon.
Well, today was the perfect combination of excellent weather and a dose of insomnia. When I woke up at 3:00a I watched the moon setting outside of Chatham Gardens - it was too near the actual set time to get the camera set up, so I made myself a travel mug of espresso and headed down to Lighthouse Beach.
I was not disappointed. If you click on the picture I included in this posting you will reach my Flickr site with a few more pictures of another beautiful sunrise in Chatham
