Sunrise at Bottisham Lock

It was calm, peaceful and unhurried at Bottisham Lock this morning, and left me with no regrets at having climbed out of bed before dawn on a Sunday morning.   Those images taken after the appearance of the sun had more birds in them, but not any more.   With the editing software available these days, it would be easy enough to balance the black and white spots too, but that is not how I remember the morning so have deliberately left in the 'blocked' blacks as silhouettes.  

Sunrises and sunsets may be considered 'naff' to some but I can recall the thought of being so insignificant in the scheme of things when watching a vast expanse of Fenland sky having intense colour and always changing.
