Marlboro Point Sunrise

Marlboro Point Sunrise by IntrepidXJ, on Flickr

I was up at 4am this morning so that I could make it to Marlboro Point before sunrise. With storms moving through the area today I was hoping for a colorful sunrise. I wasn't let down. As I drove out to the point, the eastern sky started to turn a dark pink on the horizon. There was a small sliver of sky open just above the horizon to let some light through. Shortly after reaching Marlboro Point and setting up my camera the light show really started.

Wow! That is unbelievably beautiful. Where is Marlboro Point? It looks like Dead Horse Point, but this view is a little different.

Those clouds are so awesome and it was definitely worth to get up so early.
I'm kinda envious, really

I use a Canon 5DmkII

I shot one exposure for the sky and one for the foreground and blended them together in Photoshop.
