On July 1st, I had woken up around 4:30am in order to capture the dawn and rising sun over Doliber Cove. Shortly after the sun rose, I raced back to my car and headed to Redd’s Pond where I hoped the trees might offer some cover from the sun’s strong glow and allow me a few more opportunities to capture the pink dawn that had developed.
As it turned out, I made it just in the nick of time. The pink clouds visible low in the morning sky and reflected in the still water of Redd’s Pond burned off within five minutes of my arrival.
I was thrilled that I had been able to capture two very different images of that morning’s pink dawn.
