Smith Rock Sunrise by gingersanders

Smith Rock Sunrise

photo 102
I dropped my husband off at the airport at 5AM and thought.....well. I could wait another hour and a half and catch the sunrise at Smith Rock.

So I sat in my car under the creepy looming rocks and waited like a little light stalker.

This light lasted for two minutes and then, just like that, it was gone.

I knew I had a batch of some of my best photos ever and as soon as I got home my chip ATE all of them and I had to learn about flash recovery programs....

It was such a great photo day for me here at this place if any FB'ers want to see them.....There are 11 shots in this album.

Fabulous shot! It takes patience to be a photographer.
