Bristol Harbor at Dawn - Bristol, RI, USA

Bristol Harbor at Dawn - Bristol, RI, USA

The story:
I woke up this morning very excited about the prospect of photographing the sunrise. I checked the weather the night before, which called for bright sun until at least 0800.

But this is New England after all...

Up at 0520; pack the camera and dog, and head to Newport's Second Beach for a 0616 sunrise. The cloud cover was so dense that at 0700 there was no sign of the sun anywhere in the East. The only indication of the sunrise was by looking N/NW - I thought that the Earth's axis had shifted!

I failed on my quest, but will try again next weekend. The picture above was my catch of the day back in Bristol around 0740.

The location of the sun today was not ideal due to the time of day. Definitely worth a vistit at first light or sunset. Will try again. The history of the windmill can be found at the Middletown Historical Society's page:
