http://photos2.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/c/2/1/2/event_92449682.jpegNo I didn't stutter! We're going to take a run up to Gettysburg National Battlefield on Monday for sunrise and the meeting time is correct.

In order to be at our sunrise location, set up, and waiting on the proper light we'll need to leave my house at 4:30 am.

On Monday twilight begins at 6:33am with sunrise occurring at 7:01 am.

There's a chance for snow over the weekend which could really help a sunrise photo.

DISCLAIMER: I must admit I've gotten up to Gettysburg hoping for a sunrise shot without it happening. Sadly we have no control on the sun, clouds, and light - BUT when everything does come together it makes for a fantastic combination.

After sunrise we might catch a bite to eat then hit the battlefields for some more photos. It's not going to be a warm day (high is 39 degrees), so bring your mittens.

This is definitely not a meetup for sleepy heads!

The sunrise photo above was taken a few months ago. Even though I arrived at the Virginia State Monument a little late and there were no real clouds in the sky, I was able to pull off a nice HDR shot.
