Sunrise in New Hampshire

Good capture of the rising mist and the foreground grass and its reflection.

Glad you like it!
 
What settings are you using? Went out last night and mycolorsjust don't seem as dramatic as the true sky?
It was cloudy but the sun snuck out thru a couple of sunset clouds, so not at a direct sun.
thanks, wonderful shot!

In your bio page...did you say you "did" Yellowstone for 7 months?! I am curious what that means...Yellowstone ain't that big...lol! But would be a nice challenge!

Settings I can't recall exactly...but somewhere in the range of ISO 100-250 most likely...shutter no less than 1/200 (hopefully...since these were handheld) and aperture no smaller than f5.6 or so.

These were really just snap shots...just was showing you guys my morning!!!
 
Hey Charlie, I'm not sure how I missed this. Maybe because I told myself I can't open one more sunset, sunrise or frozen water droplet, but I'm glad I did. I really like these. The first shot gets my vote.

Lol...I feel EXACTLY the same as you. Sunsets, flower pictures, water drops...meh. Even some Yellowstone shots!! They all look the same...dime-a-dozen. Those shots were my morning that day..and it was a nice morning in my new town, so I was inspired to share my moment...rather than share a photo...but I think adding the grass saves the shot from being too generic. Thanks For the comment Rick

If you go to his Flickr page.. and click on the camera type in the line "This photo was taken on September 17, 2012 using a Nikon D7000." it will show you the Exif (shot) information if it exists in the photo. Like the below:


What is Exif data?

Exif data is a record of the settings a camera used to take a photo or video. This information is embedded into the files the camera saves, and we read and display it here.

The mist is awesome, and the plants/grass look almost like crazy writing. I admire anyone who can actually stomach being up at dawn :-P
 
Thanks for the memories. I used to live in Portsmouth and I miss the state.
