Navajo Mountain is in the distance as the sun rises at about 6 am. The weather had improved, so we did not have to suffer from the freezing temperatures this day. Motivation to get up at 5 am to go and shoot a sunrise when the weather is bad usually is lacking. This was the case on our first sunrise shoot at Horseshoe Bend a few days earlier. As we drove up to the trail to hike down, it was snowing, and the wind was blowing. No sane person would think of going on a hike in these kind of conditions. But bad weather can result in some beautiful photographs. The light may be fleeting, but all it takes is 5 minutes of sunlight to get a good shot. Usually that means that the rest of the morning may be a fruitless wait for better conditions, but at least you have a few good shots.
