Did any Melbournian dSLRists manage to capture some photos of today's magnificent sunrise ?

I was driving to work looking at the wonderful reds & oranges amongst the long whispy clouds and hoping that someone had their camera out and was taking photos. I really need to start taking my camera into work with me !!!

If you did, please post them....

Gary,

'Red sky morning, sailors warning.'

So this just means that Melbourne is expecting a bad weather day :)

Steve,

So you're saying that Melbourne has a magnificent sunrise every morning?

I can almost accept that, based upon the consequences you state, but I still have an issue with the original premise. :)

Gary, not many people see the sunrise in Melbourne. It's too boring to get up that early.

When i was a baker living and working in Melbourne i used to see the sunrise regularly, but there are very few people around at that time of morning except during winter as the sunrise is a bit later, but winter in Melb is 'winter.' so the sun at sunrise is a remote occurrance. :)

Mr Stark,
I hope you are not using these cheap insults on us fine Melbournians to simply raise your post-count ? :wink:

Why should I need to raise my post count by making posts? I have access to the SQL database, and could just fudge the numbers directly if I wanted to do that.

Or I could just modify the source for the software, as I did when Thanh's post count hit 10000. :)
