Gamer's Sunrise

Mesa, AZ

As the soft orange glow fills the room from the East, I realize I just squandered another night of sleep on a senseless pastime/addiction.

If I were 20, I’d just sleep the rest of the day, but I’m not, and my wife and kids need me to be at work in an hour to earn a paycheck and put food on the table.

I guess it’s something only a gamer would understand, everyone else save me the ‘grow up’ and ‘get a life’ speeches – besides I’m a photo phreak too so I know most of you trade sleep for time in front of your box playing with Photoshop or the dpreview forums!

As a recovering Everquest addict, this is an image I know all to well. Good shot.

A shot I can really relate to. The orange glow is nice too, and the wide angle super.

You're speaking to a lot of us, I'm sure. You sure captured a mood with this one! Very nice. Shu
