Wow! That is beautiful! ๐
Thanks again Dorothy.
I must say that right up until the color started to appear in the sky, and it really never got any better than this, I thought for sure this was going to be yet another in a long line of failed gambles with coastal sunrises and the weather.
Looks so mystical.
Thanks Colline ๐
That’s exactly what I thought too – mystical!

Thanks x 10 ๐
Colline is right ๐ Your capture is mystical ๐ I love the contrast between the rugged rocks and the creamy softness of the water, not to mention the colours on the horizon – Just the right amount of pink ;). Was it a sunrise?
Thank you Paula. Yes it was sunrise. As they say, dramatic weather makes dramatic photographs. This is as good as it got as I gambled yet again on the sun getting to the horizon before the storm clouds.

Gorgeous!!
Thank you Cindy! You’ll probably be seeing more of images like this soon. At least until we get some of that wonderful white stuff. So stop hogging it all, and send some our way please!
Please, take it!!! It’s storming like crazy here this morning, and I need to go out this afternoon :(.
Damn straight you do! All that fresh new snow and you and your camera are sitting inside? That’s just plain wrong I tell ya!
No, today is devoted to my other hobby – reading :). I am going to see an author speak about an hour north of here, and I am hoping the roads improve before I have to leave. Maybe photos tomorrow when the storm is done.
What beautiful colors! I’m so glad you gambled and waited for the sunrise! Thanks for stopping by and visiting my post as well.
Thanks Lisa. I actually gamble a lot with the weather when it comes to coastal sunrises. If there is a storm front heading out to sea and there is even a remote chance that the sun will get to the horizon and really light up the undersides of the clouds, before the clouds reach the horizon and totally block out the sun I’ll chance it. Of course I’m less than an hour from the New Hampshire seacoast, so other than sleep loss it’s not a big deal. Anything for a good dramatic sunset. if on the other hand it’s going to be a crystal clear, cloudless morning, I won’t even bother. I’ll find something else to shoot.
“Cardinal Guzman” sent me here when I commented on his “horizon” post and he was right! You’re work is pretty damn amazing! I’m following!
Well I’ve already thanked the good Cardinal for the mention, and now I can thank you. I hope you continue to like what you see.
The colours are amazing!
Thank you, it’s pretty much all Mother Nature’s handiwork, I’m just a messenger willing to get up at ridiculously early hours to capture it. ๐
Well here’s one photo you should definitely keep. Beautiful!
No question that this one is safe, so thanks!
Wonderful capture Jeff – very powerful. Knew we could count on you for a terrific horizon ๐
Thank you Tina, all in a days work ๐
Jeff, the water looks like clouds, which ads another layer to the beauty of your shot. The color of the sky is beautiful.

Thank you Janet. The two, that water and the clouds do kind of blend together as a result of the long exposure don’t they.
Great entry Jeff! I have a question: do you have a standard size that you use when you upload photos to WordPress?
Thank Cardinal. Yes as a matter of fact I do. For WordPress, 500px, Flickr, etc. I size them at 1,000px on the long edge @ 72ppi. I’ve set up an export preset in Lightroom so with just 2 clicks of the mouse I have a web ready image.
Hope that helps.
