Amazing sunrise at Godrevy, Cornwall

[Vieri]

I love photographing in all conditions, but sometimes the sky is truly generous with us, and when it happens we are in for a show. One morning at Godrevy, in Cornwall, I found such a sky: it was simply an incredible sunrise, with one of those skies that are so saturated that you actually need to tone them down in post-processing, rather than enhance!

Thank you for viewing, best regards

Stunning sunrise colors show Vieri. Nice when Mother Nature accommodates us while we are out shooting

This is really cool Vieri! I love it when the sunset or sunrise is so intense one is pulling back on the saturation!

Thank you very much indeed Ben, that's very kind of you to say! Yes, I wish I could see a sky like this a bit more often too!

Thank you very much Alan, it sure is great when something like this happens, kinda makes it up for the dozen times we find less than impressive skies after waking up at 5 am!

Than you very much indeed Jim, glad you liked it! Yes, it is a great feeling to be able to do that sometimes! [start rant] Especially in a world where so many of the million images we see online everyday are clearly doctored to the point of being garishly cartoonish. Please note that II haven't a problem versus manipulating reality, pretty much all photography is a manipulation by definition, if only they weren't so terribly done! [end rant]

Thank you very much indeed Well, I'd say that this is a pretty good sunrise for any neck of any woods, if you ask me, I certainly wish it'd happen to me more often!
