In the morning light

Two different days, two different skies. Both of these shots were taken over my house of the morning sky.

There are no textures here, the bokeh and lens flares are real.

“Morning Dunes” — Death Valley sand dnes in early moorning light.

On my late-February visit to Death Valley I only photographed the dunes on one morning. The dunes are a wonderful subject, but there are lots of other things to see and photograph in this park, and photographing those subjects didn’t leave me much time for the dunes. But it would seem wrong not to visit them at least once! I arrived well before sunrise, loaded up a pack, and walked out in the dim pre-dawn light to look for a good spot to use as a my vantage point.

Eventually I climbed to the top of a long dune that provided open views in almost every direction. There are lots of ways to photograph dunes, but on this morning I went with a very long telephoto that allowed me to focus in on distant subjects and still fill the frame. I noticed the overlapping curves on this tall dune as soon as I arrived, and I photographed it several times as the light transitioned from the soft, blue predawn light, through increasingly directional light as sunrise approached, to the intense light just after sunrise.

While I tell myself that I go to places like this to photograph birds, the truth is that little spots like this one may be more my target. Imagine waking many hours before dawn, and against your instincts starting to move quickly and efficiently to arise, make breakfast, fix lunch, brew coffee, and load a car. Then drive many hours in the dark, radio playing, as the invisible landscape slides past and the world consists mostly of what I see in the headlight beams. Getting close to my destination the sky begins to glow a bit, but I'm still driving, in the world of a noisy car and freeway speeds.

Finally I leave the freeway and drive a relatively short distance to my Central Valley destination. My first stop is still all business — arriving, I park and change into cold weather clothing and set up camera and lenses and get back in the car. I start out on some gravel road around the area I've chosen to photograph, though the sun has yet to rise, and I'm focused on finding birds to photograph. A bit later I finally begin to slow down, and with the car windows rolled down in the cold morning air I stop and turn the motor off and sit next to a place like this one and everything is finally still.

Another early morning walk along the Promenade to capture this glorious sunrise over Sunderland’s landmark Roker Pier and lighthouse.

Morning sunlight filters softly through the trees as I sit quietly, surrounded by the gentle rustle of leaves and the distant songs of birds greeting the day. The fresh, earthy scent of dew-kissed grass and blooming wildflowers fills the air, inviting a deep breath of calm. In this bird sanctuary, time seems to pause, offering a serene moment of connection with nature’s quiet beauty.

the only day in the eternity of time.

Everyday is fresh and new

I can't help but pick up the camera for a stunning sky. Loved the moon glowing brightly before sunrise this morning.
