The sunrise wasn't that amazing when I stopped at this spot. What I first noticed was the smooth flowing waves of the outgoing tide. As I was setting up my camera to get the shot I noticed the wind blown patterns in the snow looked similar to the waves. Luckily I saw this when I did. Two photographers that arrived at this spot just as I was taking this picture did not notice the patterns in the snow and stepped all over them.
