I love capturing the early morning light, especially on those rare occasions when the Hudson is so calm that the reflections make for interesting compositions. Unfortunately a few jets had flown over head, leaving the long contrails (condensation trails left by their exhaust) which disturb the very soft color of the morning sky. Nonetheless, I enjoyed the serene pre-dawn hike, and will return again for another interpretation at one of my favorite views of the Hudson Highlands.
