Albemarle Sunrise

I stopped by Tom Jefferson's place on the way to work in hopes of catching the early sun waking up the countless rows of grape vines. The fresh dusting of snow would have added a nice element to that photo. But, unfortunately I ran out of time before the sun crested the hill to reached the vineyard hollow. I did however get a pretty nice shot of this contorted tree with the sunrise back drop.

I may take this photo into editing software and try to fool with masks and layers in order to bring out some of the detail in the tree without washing out the colors in the sunset. I'll keep you posted on that one.
