Sunrise in the Dundee Hills

I was out in the vineyards really early this morning taking some photos of the post-harvest vines. It was still pretty dark out because the fog was so thick, but the sun was huge (like a harvest moon) and bright enough to illuminate its own shape through the mist.

I snapped this shot not knowing if it would turn out as good as it looked in real life. Not too shabby!

I used my Rebel XTi with a Canon EF 50mm lens (1.4) set at f/6.3 and 1/1000 second.


 
What I like about this photo is that it looks like the moon rising over the barn and trees, but it’s really the sun. Très cool.
 

  1. Beautiful picture!!! Taken on my B-Day too! What have you been up to???
