Praise from On High
The bright, morning sun and a congregation of clouds created a dramatic scene over the Kewaunee, Wisconsin lighthouse and pier; located on the western shore of lake Michigan.
When I woke up, I saw promising clouds in the sky and made my way to the lake shore to catch the sunrise. I got some good shots as the sun made its assent but decided to hang around a bit longer to see if the sun would produce a few sunbeams once it got higher in the sky. As you can see, the wait paid off.
I decided to make the image monochrome because I believe the subtle contrast between light and dark are easier to detect when you are viewing the monochrome tones, as opposed to multiple colors.
This image was captured from Selner Park. Normally I get my shots from the beach but this shot was taken from a slightly elevated position – about half-way up the stairway from the parking lot to the upper level of the park.
