The start to our dreary July 4, 2013. The sun come up over this bay and while I knew we were going to have crummy weather today, I was hoping for some breaks in the clouds to get some interplay of light and clouds/shadows in the sky line. But this was just a couple of minutes before official sunrise and the light show I was hoping for didn't appear.
It was raining - not pouring hard but hard enough I didn't want to get out in it with my gear. I was fortunate enough that there is a covered pavilion directly to my back. So I stood under cover to plan the shot and wait for daylight, then threw a plastic trash bag over my head and tripod-mounted camera, jumped out to get the shot, then retreated back under cover.
