Sunrise on Belle Isle - A Photograph

Sometimes photography is all about being there. The lazier I get the fewer pictures I take. One ambitious morning I walked down to Belle Isle. It was crisp and clear and as always I took my camera with me. I have uncounted pictures of the Hollywood Rapids. You can only look at so many pictures of rolling water. I've seen some good ones, but none were taken by me. As I walked down the path along the river I turned around and caught the took a series of photos. Every photographer knows about the magic hour, usually just before sunset, but I caught this sunrise just right. This five year old picture is still one of my favorites.

Really nice photo. I wish you could have given more info about where it was taken from. I'm not clear on exactly what position it was taken from, given that the structure in the background is kinda blown out in highlights.
