salt spring morning sky

While photographing a December morning Salt Spring sky, I used the old maxim, “get close, then get closer”. For a mater of seconds, the pre-dawn sky burst into a blaze of orange, red and purple. Worth getting up for. There were a number of breath taking vistas (Mount Baker, Active Pass and the Gulf Islands), but some of the close-ups (like this full frame photo) were the ones that caught my eye.
