Sun Harp ...

It's exactly 07:01:30 at the moment the shutter clicks to make this picture. We are already two hours in the Biesbosch then. Moorfotografie had organized a photo walk through the fields along the Hilweg in Werkendam.

We started at 05:00 to try to capture the rise of the sun in the early morning. And the light of course. That continuous changing light. I was a bit too late to picture the first sun rays in the morning because I was stopped by a small herd of horses.

They were not shy at all and had a more than ordinary interest in the bags with photo equipment. I saw myself forced to find another place, but that took too much time. The sun soon disappeared behind the clouds and the magic of the golden dawn was soon broken. Over an hour later the clouds began to break and this picture could be made ... which made my day in the end ... ;)

(The birds you see in the background is a flight of spoonbills.)
