Sunrise
Uploaded: August 20, 2008 03:54:44
This was from last Friday, on the way to work. I had my camera only because I was taking it to work to photograph the dry runs before the Offutt Air Force Base air show. It was a great sunrise, so I took a 100 yard detour for this photo.

Hope you enter both Ken. Both are beautiful. You know I serviced the Thunderbirds on my base in France. I was on Call that weekend in the Aircraft Maintenanance Squadron I was in. We had an air show that weekend and Soon as those Thunderbirds landed they called needing my shot. I was so happy doing that Ken. Bill #6336414Randy A. Myers August 20, 2008

Two really nice shot Ken! Even though number one has the best sunrise number two is my FAV because it feels more 3-D with the better modeling light and the wide-angle clouds mimicing the curve of the horizon. Terrific little diversion for your drive to work!! :0) Looks like the weather got on of the limbs recently. #6337011Amy JACKSON August 20, 2008
