I’m an inveterate night owl though I don’t confess it even to myself. I like to torture my body with early wakes trying to reorganize my cycle. But when I have shooting at 6AM I silently swear like a fishwife.

But I haven’t for a long time felt so much satisfaction from early wakeup as I did that day when I was sitting on a sofa, drinking coffee and watching sunrise. I was so fascinated with the scene that I had just forgotten about the camera and that I could take pictures of the spectacular show I was watching.
Noise of waves, calls of gulls and smell of the sea in the rays of rising September sun.
