Early early morning GBH

Uploaded: December 15, 2010 06:32:08

Description

Taken with my Nikon D700, Nikkor 300mm f/2.8 ED AF-S, SB-900, Gitzo tripod, and a cable release.

It was taken as the sun was just coming up.... I used a ton of flash to expose the GBH properly but underexposed the rest of the scene to saturate the morning glow.

Comments and suggestions welcome.

Cheers, joe
