Bright sunrise. Part 2

If during dawn the sun, due to low-falling rays, illuminates only open areas or the upper parts of buildings, then I need to climb higher. I decided to take pictures from the bridge of the 800th anniversary of Vologda.

I recently studied the shooting points here and wanted to apply them in a better light.

As it happened, there probably isn't a better light for these angles.

Sunrises and sunsets are best obtained in the presence of gloomy skies.

Architectural objects illuminated by yellow rays become as contrasting as possible against the background of dark clouds.

I think I've learned to feel the light over the years.

But not in the way that I think during shooting, no, on the contrary, the sense of light is worked out to automatism.

I just point the camera where the light is better or where there is contrast.

It feels like years later, I'm still discovering a map called Vologda.

I already know every corner, but I still have to discover new angles for myself.

Of course, I have known these views from the bridge for a long time, but for some reason I have only recently approached them in more detail and consciously.

But it's very good that there are still such angles, such shooting points that refresh the hackneyed plot.

I really want to believe that I was right when I said that photography is infinity.

You can't take everything off and be left without something new.

Although there is a downside to infinity: with the advent of photography, absolutely everything has been shot a long time ago and nothing new can be thought of.
