Sunrise in Greece

Not only did I try some milky way photos in the night but also some sunrise pictures early in the morning. For pictures of the Milky way it was the wrong time of the month since the moon phase was not good, but pictures of the rising sun in the morning are nearly always possible. I really like how the sun rises behind the "Mani" mountains and enlights the clouds first with great orange and red color. It didn't really take a long time for the sun to rise and within minutes it wa above the mountains and already showing its strengh in the morning. The summer sun is so much stronger than the sun in the other seasons and it got already hot in the morning after sunrise.

I really like the different colors that are produced by the rising sunlight and these colors change so fast within several minutes that nearly every pictures gets different eventhough there are only a few minutes between them.
