Day 35: Gas Station Sunrise

by Paul Manoian on February 4, 2010

I posted a “gray” image for yesterday‘s iPhone 365 Project photo, I even used an elongated crop to exaggerate the gray sky.  I thought it would really cool if I could go back to the same spot early this morning to capture a colorful sunrise to contrast yesterday’s image.

While I wasn’t able to make it back to the same location, I was able to be outside to see the sun come up this morning … even if it was from a gas station!  While standing there waiting for the gas pump to spit out my receipt, I grabbed my iPhone and took a quick series of photos of the pre-sunrise.  The sun was still a good 15 minutes away from breaking over the horizon causing beautiful colors throughout the hazy sky.  I used the same crop as yesterday’s photo just for my own comparison.  I really like the light purple “smudge” in the middle of the sky.

I wish I had time to move to a better location for the foreground, but the colors dissipated too quickly.  Oh well! :(
