A Band of Light

Sometimes you don't get what you want when you go out to shoot. I had a shot in mind when I got up of capturing the Minarets from the vista at sunrise with them being frontlit by light of the rising sun. When I got up there, I was surprised to see that they were socked in by the clouds. I waited and waited in the hopes that the clouds would break and I would be rewarded with the scene I had in mind. The clouds never broke to reveal the Minarets instead, I got this beautiful band of light on the hills below.

 

Sometimes I wonder if we are not all guilty of making up our minds with the shot we want and when nature throws us a curveball, we pack in our tent and go some where else. I admit, I came really close to doing just that here. I decided to stick it out and see what was going to happen and I got this. Maybe it wasn't what I wanted but it sure was pretty!
