Sunrise Thru the Zoom...


When I first arrived, my initial impression was that the sunrise wouldn't amount to much. After I began walking, the whole scenario changed!! Most of these images are seen with the zoom lens, some aren't --in no particular order! ONE [the last and final in the series] is taken at my back when I turned around from the sunrise scene to view the moon in the west...







This concludes the morning at Whitecap Beach on Padre Island.

  1. These are really gorgeous!! My favorites are the first and second (because there are birds flying through), four, and nine because of the sun's reflection on the water.

  6. They are all so gorgeous! Seeing those with the zoom lens makes me want to get a good camera again instead of just my cell phone.

  7. Wow! What a series of glorious sunrises that bring warmth to the Midwest! Using a zoom lens means you have quite a steady hand. Do you shoot in a particular camera mode? (M, Ap, Auto)

  17. You hit the jackpot for sure. I love all the shots but the one with the piece of wooden pier over on the right and the expanse of the Gulf just really has my heart.
