People came out in full force for this one. With cloudy and gloomy days on either side, we had but one chance.

Just because it’s Orehenge doesn’t mean I have to choose the photo of it in the center. And though it’s not in the center on this one, I love that it’s tucked into the corner and illuminating one side of the ore dock. I think this is much more dynamic than a perfectly centered sun and symmetrical composition of the ore dock.

Another favorite capture of the morning.
