Before the wind

At the conclusion of our Palm Springs trip, we woke up the last morning prior to dawn and headed out before it got too hot. Heading north back toward the San Gorgonio pass, we got to see the turbines of the wind farm. This time by the light of sunrise.

This first shot is not all that good, really, but it was taken the moment I spotted the sun appear. We were at a gas station. I shot the mountains to the west, aiming over the buildings (which seemed a good idea at the time). But that's first light you see.
