I find myself waking up early in the mornings to watch the sunrise - to me, it's a great time to make a cup of tea and reflect on your day or life. It's a sense of peace that I've come to cherish and helps me start my day off right - before the stressors of the day takeover. Finding a beautiful location such as the one captured in this photo elevates my peace.
The best part of a sunset is the 10-15 minutes after the sun actually sets - with the right clouds, the sun lights up the bottom side of the clouds as shown in this photo. I call this the after burn.
My take on an abstract sunset in San Diego. This photo was created by using a long exposure while panning the camera. It's not an easy technique, but it sure does create an interesting image!
