Horizontal Sunrise

I am convinced: Sunrises ARE good light, beside the cliche. But i have also to admit, that i was more looking for the cliche ;-), when i was taking pictures in my early Fotocommunity ("FC")-times, in 2004/2005. Mainly, because our Northern German landscape is not so very attractive for classical landscape photography - so i had (and still have) to search for special light or special technical ways (motion blurness, zoom-effects, long time exposure, using open aperture and so on) for creating interesting photographs.
At first i was a bit disappointed here, because the clouds were completely hiding the sun - it was simply cloudy that day - no sunlight was visible. But then suddenly there was that small light slit - and it was probable just because of this cloudshape, that the shot looks so special.
Of course this is no photoshop work, it is a "one shot" image. To me this is important, if we want to call something a "photograph" afterwards: It has to be a one-shot-picture. My opinion is: A true photograph has to have an aperture setting and a shutter time, otherwise it is a graphic, a montage or a painting. So once again: This is - after my own definition - a photograph.
