This Sunrise is for the Birds

Robin and I spent a quick week back in Canada starting on the Labour Day weekend. On one of the mornings we spent in Port Stanley, I got up early and went for a walk on the new western breakwater and watched the sun come up over the eastern breakwater. The photo above captured the mood well, with the sun breaking out over the bank of early morning clouds. I had enough room to put the rising sun directly behind the light standard.

Only after I started working on the photo later in Lightroom did I realize how many birds were on the breakwater.
