Sunrise in desert with iPhone

This will be a short photography story experience as Me and my wife was traveling back from a town trip in the early morning. We passed a straight long highway across the desert, and it was around 5:30 am where the sub just about to arise from the horizon. The road was a bit foggy and we saw a beautiful view of the orange desert blanketed with soft white mist! We then decided to have a quick visit to have a closer look and experience the ambient.

As I only have my iPhone with me, I manage to capture few shots and hope able to describe the beautiful ambiance in that early morning.
Enjoy!

The mist become interesting with the backlight sunrise behind the rock.

The main offroad into the deeper desert. This road is off from the main highway

The first light on that day hit the grass.

Many native plants and flowers “collected” their water from the morning dew.

Thank you.
