Cocoa Beach, Florida

It wasn’t my ideal sunrise. I had grandiose ideas floating in my head as I drove to Cocoa Beach in the pre-dawn hours. Realistically, I knew what the weather was forecast to be but I still had hope. It had been almost three years since my last visit to the Florida coast. Weather be damned…

I struggled this morning to see the image. I suppose I let the less than perfect conditions inhibit my vision. This ended up being the last image captured. There was a small group of people setup with tripods and cameras working the fading sunrise when this person calmly walked through the scene. Not a typical image for me but I decided in the moment to go with the flow.
