We were in Rexburg, Idaho to take a tour of BYUI. This was one of the schools my daughter was planning on attending. The Rexburg Temple sits on top of a hill on the campus of BYUI. It is an incredible building. This was our last morning in Rexburg. I arose before anyone was awake and set the tripod up in an empty field. My goal was to take a photo of the temple right as the sun rose over the horizon. The Temple faces East. This was one of my first attempts at HDR photography. The photo is a five exposure HDR. I didn’t have a cable release or a very good tripod, but I think the photo turned out nice. The small specks on each side of the temple are actually birds that took to flight as the sun rose.

I like the sun enhanced color of the temple.
I like the color of the horizen, it matches the temple.
I like the moon in this photo.
The blue to me off sets the color of the temple nicely.


Thank you for visiting. Let me know what you think.
