How to timelapse a sunrise

Capturing my first 'professional' sunrise (as in I was being paid for it) was daunting.  I'd been asked to get a shot of the sunrise on the South East coast of England and having done all my research, location scouting online and weather checks, I awoke at 1am to drive over and set up my camera.

Working as a full-time Timelapse Photographer can have it's downsides - not many, but like any other profession, it's not all plain sailing.   When I'm booked for a job, I'll try and catch up on my sleep before I head off but sometimes, I really don't help myself.   So I was asked to head to Anglesey to shoot some timelapse for the good old BBC (The programme name withheld as it's not been broadcast yet) and I took the 6hr drive from London to the very tip of Anglesey, technically Holy Island, to Southstack Lighthouse to do a bit of a recce before the next few day's shooting commenced.

I'd heard a rumour a while ago that apple would be integrating a timelapse feature into the new operating system and with a sigh and a yawn I discarded the info as I've never been a fan of timelapse apps, apart from TriggerTrap ;-)
