Is getting up early worth it?

In this case I think it was :)

Sunrise 4 Dec 1.jpg
7:44 am

I am not a morning person. I actually pretty much hate it and I feel sleepy all day even if I go to bed early too. But there is no problem for me to stay up late and do all the things I am supposed to do.
I just like those sunrises... And for those (the sunrise season) I have to way until winter. The sun shows up on the angle that is actually photographable. In the summer it is behind those buildings on the left and I cant really see anything. Besides summer sunrise happen at some crazy hours I don't even wanna think about.

So now...until maybe February or March I will have a lovely sunrise view :)
Of course id I get up early enough..

I got cool sunrise, cool clouds and awesome flare on that one shot.
I love those flares!

And since this the first sunrise I shot this season I didn't wanna miss anything... so yea.. I took photos every few minutes.
Breakfast can wait. Coffee not so much and it got cold dammit.

And this is my second favourite shot after the first one. With the dark blue colours (I didn't edit those, that's how the camera caught it) and the steam coming out form the chimneys it looks like another world.

I took a break for feed the cat and make some breakfast and the clouds started to show. It seemed we will have another sunny day as yesterday, but I guess not.

Last happy rays before the dark cloud covered it all. It all lasted 30 min. And yes, it was worth it :)

I feel your pain lol. But sometimes the sunrises are worth it.
