I was a little out with my planning today. It has been a while since I checked the sunrise time and at 7.40 I flew out of the house for an 8.04 sunrise. This is 10 minutes from my place so I made it just before sun up. I took this hand held with no filters just to make sure I got a shot as the sun was peeking through a narrow gap on the horizon. Fortunately it was a double sun rise day as there was another gap coming which enabled me to get some more shots later, albeit in more subdued lighting. It is taken just up from Belgray Reservoir which is an area I first photographed when I received my Canon 5D Mark ii.
Love this corner, I see it when I walk out of Central Station. It's always busy at night as a restaurant and I love it most, when it is like this with the sun hitting it in the morning. Fridays is the name of the Restaurant on the ground floor. Proof we do see the sun and blue skies in Scotland.
Early on my way to work the sunrise kisses the sandstone buildings to a lovely shade of gold.
