¶I love catching the sunrise over the Maumee River. I don't get to do it as much as I would like, but hope to work it into a regular routine 'one of these days'. This simple iPhone photograph is powerful motivation for making that change.
Sunrise at Setup
Davis Overlook, Perryburg, Ohio; July 19, 2025
Technical Notes
¶I'm regularly amazed by the photographs people make with an iPhone. I use mine to capture photographs all the time, and the results still surprise me from time to time. I took this photo using the Lightroom app on my iPhone 15 Pro Max as I was setting up for a sunrise shoot with my mirrorless (my tripod is just out of frame to the right).
