I grabbed my camera this morning to try a few dawn shots. Wandering the beach before sunrise is just about the most serene thing one could ever hope to do, in my opinion!



The pre-dawn light is such a pretty lavender shading to pink color and these little mangrove babies were perfectly reflected in the mirror calm water.



Eventually, and very slowly, the sun made it's appearance. Silhouette shots during the sunrise or sunset can be very striking. My little 40 Digital Tricks book recommends adjusting the exposure to (-) to take great silhouettes. It seemed to work well!
