Sunrise: What does it bring?
- The despair of Just Another Tequila Sunrise?
- The bittersweet awareness of the passage of time of Sunrise, Sunset?
- The joy of Beyond the Blue Horizon?
Yes.
And another day.
“I know what I have to do. I have to keep breathing.
Because tomorrow, the sun will rise.
And who knows what the tide could bring?”
– Tom Hanks as Chuck Noland, in Cast Away
My camera’s auto mode injects some exaggeration into sunrise and sunset shots, and I have yet to take the trouble to learn how to resolve that. But even so they can be lovely reminders: in this case, of standing on the ship’s top passenger deck, braced against the wind, watching the start of another day.
Waits a beautiful day?
Beautiful! I usually have many more sunset pictures than sunrises, but winter is coming and sunrise opportunities will be at a decent time to photograph again.
Danielle: Thanks! Sunrise is usually tougher – when the time is not too late, the weather is usually not too warm! Maybe that’s why I took the opportunity on the cruise – at least it was warm, when I struggled out of bed!
