Default Rustic Sunrise

Took this one along Lake Pepin in southeast Minnesota USA back in 2008. Just getting to it now...I've been busy.

While not necessarily the most compelling composition, I loved the texture in the sky and had to capture it. Didn't have much time to compose anything but I still like it. Thought I'd share!
