Some days before I took this shot my wife asked me why I would consult a website with the position of the sun with all the data about the dawn, sunset, golden hour, and so on.
My answer is this shot. The sun is in front of me, it's not visible because it's covered by the vegetation so I have good light without flare issues.
I love this place, I think it's the most evocative place in the harbour of Porto Ercole. It was worth to get up at 5 am.
