Early, before the sun rises, I like to go out. Sometimes there is still moonlight illuminating the road or pickets of a fence. But if you wait, this will change. In this photograph, I waited until there was enough light to capture the trees, but still dark enough to make them seem less than realistic. The rose-colored sky is like a blanket on the still-damp grass. It is a moment before full light. It is all about anticipation, which I hoped to capture in this photograph.
