A collection of beautiful sunrise images captured at Cedar Key, Florida.

Sunrise at low Tide

Low tide in Cedar Key during sunrise created an opportunity to get some unique shots this morning…

I think the following shot includes just about every Cedar Key Black Skimmer…   As I slowly walked closer to them it was comical seeing all of them aligned and looking at me…     When the tide is in these birds spend a fair amount of their time sitting in the middle of the Cedar Key beach, so they are quite accustomed to people.

An absolutely beautiful sunrise this morning…    The water was smooth as silk, the air clear and the sky beautiful shades of pink and blue.

The vast majority of the birds in the images are Black Skimmers.    What a beautiful sight it was to see them swirling about in the rising sun just off the beach.

This shot was captured at the public beach.  It’s easy to see why the first hour after sunrise and the hour before sunset are called the Golden Hour.
