birth of a new day

Posted by DarkElf (Perth, Australia) on 16 April 2008 in Miscellaneous and Portfolio.

this photo was taken one day when I went fishing with my friends in the early hours of the morning in Jurien Bay in Western Australia... well they were doing the fishing and I was snapping away with one of my first cameras and I managed to snap this sunrise... this is a case of the photo looking better than the moment itself - I was really amazed at the way it came out - it's one of my favourites...

welcome to my photoblog and thanks for visiting... my aim is to learn photography and share my experiences with you, not only through my attempts at photography, but also through showing different aspects of the world that have caught my interest over the time that i have been walking this planet... hope you enjoy the journey with me...

Great sunrise - I find the colours are usually better in the morning and this photo reinforces that - wow.

Isn't that what photography really is? Making reality look better than it really does.

(Even a bad day of shooting is better than a good day of fishing, in my opinion.)

I must have been asleep the day you posted this shot... I certainly would have commented at the time. Yes!.. a fantastic sunrise and a great capture thereof. I know how rare such flaming sunrises are (although I hear they're more plentiful in Australia, and even more so in western Australia), and I'm sure it was a thrill to see and photograph that one. Thanks for sharing your wonderful image.
