I was on the beach to take a sunrise shot. It was a lovely morning. We had a gentle breeze, light surf and little mist so the sunrise was more dramatic than other mornings. I was set up and just about 4 minutes before official sunrise - you can see the red glow just over the center horizon. Then I noticed the two riders moving into my frame and my first reaction was, “Oh no, people.” But they added a lot to the photo. I am trying to incorporate more people in my photos, at least more than in the past where I waited impatiently for people to clear out of anywhere I was attempting a landscape or monument photo. People add interest, scale and often implied movement to what may otherwise be a static photo. So I am trying to figure out how to use the folks in the photo. Still, not too many!
