Backlit Cattail

It's a rare day when I'm up and out before the sun on a chilly winter's morn, but it was shaping up to be a pretty sunrise this morning. The sky was full of colors, but I was surprised to find that my favorite shot didn't even include the sky! I love the excitement of seeing something in a new way, and breaking out of old routines.

Like the lower half of the image, the top could be cropped for me. Looks like it was a great time to be out, and to catch a nice shot as well.
