Sunrise at Sao Lourenco in Madeira

This Photograph was taken in Madeira (12.9.2024). To reach the Outlook I had to go up a very steep mountain early in the morning when it was still dark. There was no real trail and I had to find my way up with help of a headlamp. After I have had installed my camera on the tripod the wait was exciting not knowing if I could get the sunlight including the sunstar lighting up this famous half island in Madeira. The weather in Madeira is unpredictable. I was lucky and the sun came up and was visible in a small window for not more than 2 minutes before she disappeared behind the clouds.
