Bali 5.0 - Tulamben Sunrise

One morning in Tulamben I woke up around 4:45 to capture the sunrise. I prefer sunrises to sunsets because it is much more quiet and peaceful. I rarely see anyone out. At this particular location in northeast Bali I thought the sun was going to be obstructed by the curving peninsula or by the mountains. I shot some photos from the rocky beach as the sky transitioned from a dark blue to a light pink/purple. I captured some shots I liked and headed back to my room. It was already light out and I figured the sun already peaked out. As I headed up the trail I glanced at the ocean and saw the sun starting to peak out. I was right next to a small fence with a gate partially open. The end result is the bottom photograph which I love, but was not planned:-)
