There were just enough clouds in the Raleigh area sky to make today's 090909 sunrise interesting... seen in the top image just as the sun topped the treeline (better large on black), in the middle shot 10 minutes earlier (here LOB), and above 30 minutes earlier (again, better LOB). All things considered, it was... sweet!

loving that first shot, it has so many shades to it. nice shot. ????? · 2009-09-09: 19:44
