D3x, 70-200mm

About 4:00AM - the sun breaking through a clearing in the clouds

Woah - what a fantastic burst of light! Really a stunning contrast of light and dark. It was worth getting up before 4:00AM to get the shot! (I think...) :D

I was up from about 2:30AM to 1:00AM everybday with a couple hour nap from about 1:00PM to 3:00PM. Often between 2:30AM and 4:00AM I was either alone or maybe with one other person out on the deck of the ship.
