Now this, this is a difficult sunrise to edit. I live for foggy mornings like this, which makes any photo unique, no matter how many times I’ve taken that same composition.

Ultimately I went with the lighthouse photo. It’s a view standing on the south side of the Marquette lighthouse which I don’t get to as often. I love the fade to white, the classic red color, the birch tree, and colors of the rock with the long exposure.

You can still see a little ice!

Wish I could send this photo to whoever this is.
