Pre-Dawn Ocean + Boathouse (3:00 Awake 4:21 Arrive 4:42 Acquire)

            : )

Hello my friends!

***
Quick note:   
I've been away for 3 weeks and only returned today... so it may take me a while to catch up with Flickr Email, personal messages, etc.  Hope everyone is still around and will stop by and say hello!
***
   
The photo above was captured at 4:42 in the morning,  a pre-dawn photo that I tried to plan out and had a bit of luck with : )
I woke up at 3:00 in the morning to have enough time to make my way to the general area and then walk around a bit (in the dark) to try and find a good shot!

While walking through some very dark areas between the woods I heard some loud animal sounds which I'm guessing were deer calling out to each other.  Could have possibly been an Elk (Moose) but I've never seen one in this particular area before.

Anyhow,  it was about 4:10 in the morning and I couldn't see 1 meter into the dark woods and those sounds heightened my senses to say the least!

Regarding the photo capture...
The dark blue in the sky (and also reflected upon the water) would have created a pure bluehour shot if it wasn't for that orange glow of predawn light from beyond the trees.
I was pretty happy to be there and experience this moment in the raw and am very happy to share it here with you guys too!

I had never captured this area in predawn light so I wasn't sure what to expect.
After capturing this photo I proceeded to walk up and down the shore a bit and capture more moments which I will be uploading here as well : )

My compact Sony HX90V camera surprised me again with what it could pick up in this lowlight shot.
I was happy with the coloring of blues & oranges it captured too!
Also liked the water reflections of the boat masts, boathouse and trees : )

All in all it was a very exciting experience!

 Thanks for your support guys,  I appreciate it so very much!  

Hope you find something interesting or enjoyable here : )

p.s. ----------> I'm glad to be back !!!  : )
