Trakai Castle - Sunrise
Trakai is located just over half an hour by bus from Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania. It's main attraction is a beautiful restored castle on an island in the middle of the adjacent lake. It's worth spending a night in Trakai - to see the sunset and sunrise and to see the town without all the day-trip tourists!
This is a shot of the sunrise, taken from the garden of the guesthouse I was staying at on the western shore of the lake. It's two exposures blended using luminosity masks; one for the sky and one of the castle.
