Sunrise at an ocean beach is an ever-changing affair. Each day is different, and in fact with each breaking wave a unique scene unfolds. The clouds and sun can add drama, or if they fail to show can make for a blasé sunrise. You’re never quite sure what you are going to get.
But there is near-universal appeal of the sunrise, no doubt one of the most common types of landscape photographs made. Not so easy to take (or process), but when the conditions are right, they are hard to beat. Photo © copyright by Dr. Edward Mikol.
