Regular readers know what a fan I am of those amazing early morning sunrises. You see colors at the pre-sunrise that are magical, and it all happens so fast.
Who needs sleep when the world’s great free light show is outside, just awaiting your eyes? (You can sleep when you’re dead, right?)
So spurred on by my friend Chris MacAskill, I set out the other morning to prove it, and show the difference 15 minute increments can make. I surprised even myself by the results. Here’s the moon, sky and Redondo Beach Pier in California, at 6:30, 6:45, 7 and 7:15 am. What do you think?
Believe it now? Who’s up for waking up and getting out the door at the crack of dawn? Come join me!
These shots are from the upcoming Redondo Beach #Photowalk with my mom Judy. Look for it here soon!
