Garlic Island sunrise

[TimMc]

This shot took screw ups over a couple of days. First I left a XQD card in the slacks I thru in the wash. This morning Vicki handed it to me explaining it went thru the wash and dryer. I loaded it into my camera and it popped right up. Went out to shoot a couple of test shots. The sunrise was just a narrow band above the horizon. Went back into to download and check the card was working and looked back to see the sky light up. Went back and got this. I may shoot best when nothing is going right

Sounds like some aggravating serendipity with a great outcome - this is a stunning sunrise.

Do you feel like the colors come out a little cleaner after the card got washed?

Maybe I should wash it again for HDR output

That is a wonderful sunrise and nicely framed too.

Ha ha, that's a funny story Tim! Well, I guess that's one way to scrub a memory card.

Awesome image, I really like how you framed this.
