Default Sunrise Mountain
Took this shot this morning at 7:45 am 1/23/2010. I thought it looked cool the sun just hitting at this angle. Active D lighting on high. Coming off the freeway ramp on I-691 in Meriden Ct. Pulled over, jumped out, & clicked away. enjoyJIM_6023

Jim,

This is a very nice shot . Thought it was something out of the Southwest at first ...then saw it was Connecticut Rock formations do indeed make for some great photos as you have demonstrated here .

TFS,

These formations do have an appeal to them when the light is hitting them just right. We have similar formation here in MT. Nice Shot
