A New Day

This picture to me seems very surreal, more like a really good painting then an actual photograph. This was taken around 7:00 in the morning near Lebanon, MO when the sun was just coming up and it was still a little misty outside. When I took the picture I was standing on what seams to be an earthen dam since right behind be is a big misty lake (those pictures will come soon enough). I really like how this picture (and 4 others like it) came out. It was tough photographing into the sun and doing so washed out all trace of the nice blue sky. However, I believe the artistic effect of the bright sky and the sun rays in the valley made up for seeing no sky. When ever I look into this picture I can imagine the joy of walking along the path and letting it take me to where ever it leads.
Pictures like this really excite me so now I will sit back and let you admire it.
Enjoy!
