Summer Solstice Sunrise!

Up at 3:00 am today to catch the sunrise for the longest day of the year! I planned this spot a little while ago. It's the only angle here you can capture the sun rising behind the church on Rutland Water. I've also done a full day at work so I'm a little tired now zzzzzz!

What an early start. Lovely shot though. Not so sure I would be able to get up at that time though.

Nice shot Richard, was this taken from near the Rutland water fishing lodge or the point out on the golf course.

@hobgoblin it's near the sailing club using a telephoto lens. It's the only way I could get the angle without getting wet!
