Early Morning River Lights, well yesterday morning I went out early before sunrise for the purpose of photographing a sunrise. But I had an unexpected view when I got down to the river.

A little out of my normal photography. A tug boat and barge were heading down river, with their giant spot light on, to guide their way as they travel in the silence of the morning. The river was smooth as ice across the river, but the clouds were reflecting in the water on my side of the river. It was so quiet except for the chugging of the motor on the boat.

So I turned towards the west to look at the new bridge. It was lit up by the construction lights under the bridge. Such a peaceful morning.

And off to my right was this gorgeous reflection of this building. I believe I will go down there again the next time it is this calm out. But get there a little earlier. As soon as the sun comes up, everything looks completely different.
