Before sunrise

5:28AM

At 5:28AM, this place was already alive, teaming with activities.  The commuter boats were finished with loading the catch ashore, the bargaining had already begun, under the few neon lights from the boat and the pier.  The sky was getting ready for the morning sun to break through, showing a "fish-belly white".  Yet the harbor was still awashed in royal blue, not until the sun reclaimed its realm. I was perched on this top floor balcony, mesmerized by the shimmer of light unfolding in the far east, and the hustles of the fish peddlers below, trying to catch my breath while wondering how to capture the amazing scenes before me.
