Rolex clock at Kentucky Horse Park

I spent several days at a horse show in Lexington, Kentucky and got this photograph of the Rolex clock outside the stadium at the Kentucky Horse Park. I was wandering the grounds shortly after sunrise one morning while waiting for the show to begin. I took a couple shots of the clock earlier but it was shaded by distant trees. It blended into the sky and the image was not anything special. When I returned about 10 minutes later the sun had just started to light the clock and really made the image pop. 6:58 AM and the light is sweet. Five minutes after this was taken the sun was already too harsh.

I was pretty lucky because I did not pre-plan this shot. Just happened to be in the spot at the right time.
