First Light on Last Day 2010

    First light captured on the last day of 2010. Why first light because I was asleep by 9:30 new years eve. The youngest kid is like a bird and wakes the second any light creeps in the window. This is the only benefit of short winter days. She actually sleeps.
    This image was taken about 30 minutes before sunrise in a construction site of for new homes. The building process stopped at a paved street with utility lines pulled due to the weakened housing market. I had to carefully hide all the existing houses, bulldozed land, and even the invasive scotch broom doesn't look so troublesome in the photo.
