Drama of Adirondack Morning

I have shot countless sunrises during the past year, but this is the only one that I called breathtaking. This is also the hightlight of my photo trip to Adirondack Park, NY, during the Labor Day long weekend. It was the third consecutive day I shot at sunrise but the only time I saw the Sun, and it was so dramatic! In this series of photos, no special filters are used, except the ones that I keep on the lenses all the time: either a UV filter or an 81A filter. Location: the bridge (Rt.30) over Raquette Pond about one mile south of the town Tupper Lake, NY. I lost track of time, but I estimated that the entire series was shot within one hour.
