I typically hate getting up early in the morning, except when I’m away on holidays in which case I can’t really sleep because I feel like I’m missing out on something. On my last night in Malta I knew I had to see the sunrise next day for it’s own sake – I miscalculated the time though and ended up wandering about Valetta Bay for nearly an hour before the big event!
This shot isn’t actually a sunrise (really?) but the angle of the sun really lit up this bridge and so it was worth tiptoeing across the seaweed cobbles to get into a good shooting position.

Hi,
I have been following you on Twitter about your love of HDR. I am still trying to make up my mind about it. I am not totally convinced yet. I often wonder if it is the technique that is more interesting than the actual photographs. I think some of the images in your archives are very strong others less so. The bridge above is good but I feel that the real picture is the portion looking under the bridge, Keeping the sky and most of the foreground but cut out from just past the the curve of the arch on the left.
Also I would remove the telephone lines from the sky.
I hope you don’t mind these comments.
Regards
Gerry
Hi Gerry,
All comments are welcome! I’d love to spend more time and thought on each photo I post but unfortunately I only spend maybe 20-30 mins on each one – I’m near the end of a PhD and things are getting pretty busy. I’d love to have more time for this type of thing, maybe then I’d be more conscious about the frame of the scene.
I agree about the overhead lines; they do take away a bit from the photo as a whole, I may edit this sometime in the future.
