I ran out this morning for a quick early morning photography trip. My main purpose was to go to Eco Pond in Flamingo to see if the birds had arrived yet. However, I got talked in to getting up early enough to shoot a sunrise on the way down by Robert Chaplin who was also headed out to Everglades National Park.
We stopped at a place I have shot before but never liked any of my results. It is a location with numerous mangrove trees growing in small clumps surrounded by shallow water. In theory this spot should produce some great sunrise photos but to date has not been productive for me. This morning at least produced a photo I like compositionally but I am still not sold on it. I wish I would have had more clouds or more overall color reflected in the water. However, I still like this photo and I will continue to clean it up a little bit to see if I can get a final result I am satisfied with.
