All four pre-twilight mornings during my Christmas trip to Florida were spent sitting one foot away from the bay shoreline, D3 on tripod, waiting for something to unveil itself as I watched with the sun rising from the east. Today is day four, yesterday I had a killer sunrise morning, (yet to be developed and shared), but this morning something else happened. Nothing. Grey. Dark Grey. Yuck. Wind had changed and was blowing from sea to shore. It was for a little while, a skunk of a sunrise.
However I got to thinking, that the grey black today created a backdrop of a black matte, against the water reflection and bay bridge, a complete change from yesterdays drama, but a wonderfully peacful Image.
I took my 70-200mm and set my D3 with some different setting to see if I could work on the green wire, so I switch over my white balance to, Sodium, f/3.3, 170mm, -1 EV, changed to Manual focus mode (Aperture mode was hunting due to the lack of contrast), and for 10 seconds exposed this Image…hope you enjoy it
By the way, these Images are also available for you to look at in an improved resolution and size, this photo in particular does not cut it for me at this resoution here on the site, I’d recommend you goto this link for better view : http://www.photoshelter.com/c/fritzimages/gallery-img-show/G0000_JxV6xcFcQg/I0000IiVhcrZGiRc/22
