I’ve written before about the beautiful light at sunset and dusk, which is of course great for photography.  Sunrise is also another time of day when the light lends itself to the work of the photographer – though if I’m honest, I’m less often up and about at sunrise!

When I do make the effort, though, I am always glad that I have.  There’s something about London in the early hours which is almost hauntingly beautiful – the peace, the freshness, the sense of anticipation and latent energy.  Today’s image is taken from south London and looking north-east, as the sun is just peaking over the horizon.
