Not all sunrises are equal
My friend Jeff and I got up to capture the sunrise and to my surprise it was a moonrise also. I was all setup with a wide angle to capture the stars in the sky as well the sun on the horizon. I worked as quick as I could to readjust to this image. Some of you photographers may have noticed the exposure was 30 seconds and knowing the movement of the moon waits for no one. Thanks to Photoshop and liquify I put the moon pack into proportion as to what the eye was seeing. The mountain range is the La Sal Mountain at Moab, some 40 miles away.
The lens was at a medium telephoto (170mm) @ ISO 80 and f/stop 13 (using the sharpest point of this lens).
