Description

This was just one of many trips in the dark to this lakeside location in hopes of shooting the perfect sunrise.
My A2 set up on a tripod, aperture at F/11, I waited for the sun to rise on silver lake and Mt. Timpanogos. As the light touched the lower surface of the clouds, I quickly shot about 10 frames before it was gone. The lake was calm and the reflections were beautiful.
Exposure time was .8 seconds, at -.06. I used the self timer so as not to blur the shot. (Wish I had a cable release).
