Okay back to our feast. Sometimes the appetizers are every bit as tasty as the main course, or even tastier. Here's a little appetizer that will hopefully prepare your palette for more to come in future days.
We got up very early the second morning to make a 35 mile run to this place to take some sunrise photos. By 8:00 a.m. I had taken over 60 photos and some might even be better than this one.
Don't be shy - leave a comment or email me. I look forward to hearing from you!

It's hard to believe that you have early morning shots that are better than this one. This is absolutely gorgeous.
Excellent view and light.
If THIS is an appetizer I can't wait to see the "main course" gorgeous and awesome.
Better than this photo, I don't know how. Great colour and composition! I am just trying to imagine running that far that early to capture this view. Talk about dedication to an art!
The way the morning light hits that brownie coloured rock is prfect.

It's difficult to make an appropriate comment here because I just want to sit in awe and wonder--such beauty!
Just kidding, but after a 35 mile run I'm surprised you had enough energy left to snap the shutter (yuck, yuck). But am looking forward to seeing more of these -- it's been way too long since I visited that area.
Oh by the way, on this shot it appears to me that the horizon is slightly skewed -- just wanted to let you know it's something that sort of caught my eye.
Love your photo-blog -- these images are outstanding! You do great work.
Better than this one??? out of breath were you? by running all that way, were did you come from .... (just kidding).
Love the sunrise.
Wonderful colors. Hugs D.
this is extraordinary, Scott.
and this is only an appetizer!?
This is so beautiful. You really captue some of the best light.
Love it.
Thanks also for your visits and kind words.
I don't suppose I could stand the temperature - but what a wonderful place to be.
