Dawn to Sunrise - 30 January 2019 (Original Video/Photos)

On this morning I woke up to a spectacular sunrise. The rays of light seemed to bend on the horizon before giving way to a burst of color.

Photographs/video taken on 30 January 2019.

Sunrise Video

For this photo shoot I focused on the distant horizon then turned off the auto-focus and the image stabilization on my lens.

The photographs in the video cover a 38 minute time-frame. This video stitches together 107 photos starting 32 minutes before the official sunrise.

Time Lapse Video

The following animated GIF is 60x the speed of the full video.

Sunrise Photographs in Sequence

Dawn: The period of the day when light begins to appear in the sky from the sun. Sunrise: The time when you first see the sun in the morning.

To give you an idea of the when the photographs were taken I am adding a T-time. T-0 is sunrise, T-10 is 10 minutes before sunrise, and T+5 is 5 minutes after sunrise.

This is a representative sample of the photographs in the video. The photographs have not been enhanced, you are seeing what I observed on this morning.
