Sunrise is a time when we witness the birth of a day, which always fills me with deep gratitude of being alive.
On the last day at Music@Menlo last year, I stayed up really late working for the morning press deadline. At 4:30 am, I faced the decision; go to sleep or witness the morning miracle... and I chose the latter. This decision, I've never regretted.
I look forward to returning to Music@Menlo as their photographer, and hopefully to return to this beautiful park ... having taken a nap before sunrise next time....
Enjoy!
