Sunrise

As I opened my garage door this morning I was greeted with the beginning of a beautiful sunrise complete with a bright planet (Herald-Leader reporter Andy Mead thinks it was Venus). A jet was off in the distance with the contrail glowing from the light of the rising sun. I grabbed my camera and fired off a few frames as the jet streaked past Venus. The photograph was made with a Canon EOS-1D Mark II digital camera, ISO 400, 1/10 second at f2.8 with a 70-200mm f2.8 zoom lens set at 70 mm. The camera was hand held with the image stabilization feature turned on. Charles Bertram
