Unless you’re a winter sports afficionado, and live in a country which has plenty of snow, there aren’t too many benefits to the winter. It’s cold, wet, sometimes icy, and you have to spend a fortune keeping your house warm.

It does have a couple of advantages though :-

  • It’s fun keeping warm with someone else :)
  • Because the sun rises so late, and sets so early, it’s possible to make use of them.

The most beautiful light of the day can be found at sunrise and sunset. As the winter turns to spring, the days are getting longer, sure, you get to take photos outdoors of happy warm people, but the harsh sun of the summer brings with it its own challenges.

If you’re up and about early, take advantage now, whilst you can see the sunrise. Soon you’ll have to get up insanely early to get a sunrise shot.

Go on, take a sunrise shot, you know you want to!
