Image Details:

Today at the sunrise in Monterrey, from where I was (El Obispado hill downtown Monterrey), the sun was coming from behind the mounts of Mamulique mountain range but there was a thick cloud over it allowing only a gap to see the sunrise. I knew I was not going to be able to capture the whole solar disk so, I decide to wait and see it rising thru this crack between the mount and the cloud, take a few photos as the sun was going up and at the end put some frames together and come up with a composite of the full sun. This is composite is what came out. At the bottom left, a little snap shot of the sunrise as it was seen coming from behind the mountain. The photo is a little over exposed to allow seeing the mount, the cloud above the sun and clouds all around. Hope you like it. Cheers EarthSky!
