  5. Beautiful sunrises, and you’re reminding me I still need to take part in that challenge. I love sunrises, even more than sunsets. They’re such a promising start to any day.

  6. Hey Jane – your images on this post are helping to get me in the mood for our hiking trip this year – Bryce Canyon! Hope I can take a page out of your book and get up early enough to catch the sunrise!

    • Hi Deb, Thanks! Wow- that’s great that you’re going! I would highly recommend the sunrise shoot at the amphitheater. Depending on time of year, it gets very crowded but it is well worth it! Hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

      • I don’t do it as often as I would like, and when I do I always think “I should do this more often!”

        February 25, 2013 at 7:57 pm

      • I completely agree! We need to remember those thoughts in the early morning hours.
