One of my favorite times of the day is sunrise. This is especially true if I have either a camera in my hand or a fishing rod. Today, I’ll talk about the former and leave the latter to another post.
Photography at sunrise is magical for a number of reasons. It is a “magic hour” when the light is filtered through miles of atmosphere making models look their very best. When the model is posing with the brilliantly colored morning sky behind her, it creates unforgettable moments for the camera.
But there is also amazing energy when shooting pictures in the early morning hours. Each time the energy of the day is compressed leaving one feeling the promise of eternity in every photo.
The challenge to early morning photography is that the light changes moment by moment. So one can capture great shots only if one is prepared to act fast with the camera settings and subject positioning.
Furthermore, there is a brightness and happiness to sunrise photography. It could be my imagination, but some people just look their best at that time of the day.
If you are a morning person, maybe you can inspire that one in a million magical shot!.... but even if the photography gods are not smiling that morning, you will still have a great time rejoicing in the beauty of God's creation.
