On this morning some of the clouds on the horizon are natural and some are artificial. No matter there source, the clouds add to the beauty of the sunrise.

Photographs/video taken on 14 November 2019.

Sunrise Video

For this photo shoot I focused on the distant horizon then turned off the auto-focus, but forgot to turn off the image stabilization on my lens. I strongly suspect that the image stabilization is causing the slight movements seen in the video. I used the shake reduction feature of my editing software to remove as much as possible, but it did not fix all of it.

The photographs in the video cover a 54 minute time-frame. This video stitches together 142 photos starting 46 minutes before the official sunrise.

Full Video

All the photographs taken have been compiled into a 7 minute 21 second video. The photographs have not been enhanced, you see what I observed.

Music: "Symphony No. 5" by Beethoven.

Sunrise Photographs in Sequence

Dawn: The period of the day when light begins to appear in the sky from the sun.
Sunrise: The time when you first see the sun in the morning.

To give you an idea of the when the photographs were taken I am adding a T-time. T-0 is sunrise, T-10 is 10 minutes before sunrise, and T+5 is 5 minutes after sunrise.

This is a representative sample of the photographs in the video. The photographs have not been enhanced, you are seeing what I observed on this morning.

When I think about how wonderful it is to capture these moments, I often realize how little I had to do with making these wonderful moments. For I am just the guy behind the camera.
