The early morning is a magical time to take pictures. The world is still and quiet. As the sun rises the animals and people begin to emerge. I love the long shadows as the sun breaks over the horizon...

I took this photo in Istanbul as the city awoke and the hustle and bustle began. Try getting up before the sunrise in any big city and go for a walk as the dawn breaks. Even if you don't get a photo, you might see that big city in a whole new way.
