Morning Glory

Photograph by Todd Klassy , National Geographic Your Shot

Many photographers prefer to photograph the world as the sun goes down, writes Your Shot member Todd Klassy . Me, I prefer the peacefulness of the morning light. After a night of heavy snow, Klassy made sure to get up before snow plows had a chance to alter the clean white landscape in rural Green County, Wisconsin. Fortunately, the sun painted the horizon a beautiful pinkish hue, and it provided a nice background for this minimalist scene, he writes. Unfortunately, the snow plow driver was up earlier than me and cleared the road before I had a chance to photograph it without the black strip of asphalt.
