I had to get up around 3am to get to this spot by 4:45am. I caught this image around 5:00am. The moon rise was around 8:00am and the skies were clear. Everything was just right to capture the stars.

The incredible reflections of The Roosevelt Bridge in the early morning hours in Stuart, Florida. After being awake for a couple of hours, taking photos at 5:30am of this location was almost dream like. I could not make up my mind which shot I liked best. That mirror like reflection was as good as I could ever see.

I had full intentions of driving north this morning until I rechecked the weather map. That storm front was racing down the state today and changed my plans. I had no desire of driving back in monsoon weather conditions.
Instead, I visited Dania Beach and enjoyed the morning there. It was still very dark, but the waves were crashing along the shore and the breeze was strong.
