19th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Stunning Atlantic Sunrise

This photo is part of a series of a slowly rising dawn taken from the beach in Bay Head New Jersey. I have lived all my life here and never seen its equal. These were once in a lifetime shots. The odd thing was it was early June and not another soul was on the beach that morning.
