Chased a Sunrise Down to the Corner ~ Pasadena, Calif.

 I saw it developing from the pre-dawn window;  a sunrise with interest. There is no real vantage for me to take a photo of the sky near the horizon without the trees and city hardware in the way.  After making coffee the sky was glowing red insisting I come out a play. Found some openings partially obscuring the sunrise, but at the corner all manner of obstructions presented itself. Got a composition with the old street lights and the silhouettes of palm and the rest, as cars were beginning to pick up the numbers for the workday commute.  In a matter of just a few minutes the clouds began to give up red for yellows, and the street lights had enough good sense to call it a night.   Jim Staub
