These images go back a couple of weeks to a week my wife and I spent in a cabin on Penobscott Bay in Maine. We've been there a number of times and it does seem that I take fewer and fewer pictures. But I still like getting up to see the sunrise with my camera in my lap.
One nice thing about October sunrises is that they are so much later than summer sunrises. It's so much more civilized to get up and ready for a 6:45 sunrise...nearly an hour later than when we visited the same area in August. Generally, too, the air is cleaner, though this year it was cold enough all week so that many of the cabins in the area (including ours) had active wood stoves emitting smoke that wafted across the cove.
Interestingly, the sky most morning (exceptions below) was so clear of clouds that the sunrises, though absolutely beautiful, were not particular awe-inspiring from a photographic standpoint. Don't get me wrong. I enjoyed each of them!
The first and last images were taken during the evening "golden hour". The middle three were taken during the morning "golden hour". All were on different days.
Five of my favorites from the trip:
