Hibiscus Beach-St.Croix US Virgin Islands

I got up at 5AM for this shot, It was utter darkness when when I strolled unto the beach, then slowly the sun peaked over the mountains to the East, Golden Boy started to cast his presence all around and at 5:30AM I pressed the shutter for this one!!!

Alex,


That looks like a postcard for Florida. Since the weather up here in NY sucks, snow, rain, ice and more rain tomorrow, I am coming down :D :D

I wondered where the EHK was! But it's still a beautiful shot, Alex!

This is really what I needed to see this morning...as I look out the window to the gloom of winter. At least I can look at my monitor and think of sun and warmth. A beautiful sunrise.....definitely worth the early morning wakeup call and wait.
