Sunrise, Moncove Lake.  Moncove Lake State Park, located in Monroe County, is tucked away in the extreme southeastern corner of West Virginia.  There is a campground and boat dock near where this photo was taken.

Sunrise along a Ritchie County, WV, road.  This is between Pennsboro and Tracy Lake.

If you can catch the sun just peeking around the edge of a tree and use a small aperture setting, you will get this "sunstar" effect.

Early morning along the Highland Scenic Highway.  The Highland Scenic Highway (a.k.a. Rt. 150) is located in Pocahontas County, WV.  The Highland Scenic Highway is 43 miles long, is the highest major roadway in West Virginia, and offers numerous scenic overlooks.  Wildlife is abundant in this area, and your chances of spotting a black bear are as good an anywhere in WV.

Sunset from the Blackbird Knob Trail on Dolly Sods.  This trail is adjacent to the Red Creek Campground (primitive).  Dolly Sods, in mountainous Tucker County, WV, is a true wilderness area.  Hikers and campers should take note.  The weather can change very quickly and be extreme.  Trails are difficult and rock-strewn.

Sunrise reflected in a Canaan Valley pond.

The best way to photograph sunrises is to scout out potential opportunities in advance using a compass (to determine where the sun will rise), then return before daylight, set up your camera, and wait.

Also along the Highland Scenic Highway.  There are numerous other attractions in this area (Falls of Hills Creek, Cranberry Mountain Nature Center, Cranberry Glades Botanical Area, Cranberry Wilderness).

Sunrise at Grandview State Park near Beckley, WV.

This is from the main overlook in the park.  It provides a good opportunity for sunrises, due to it's easy access.  You may have to share the spot with other photographers, though.

Sunset, Conaway Run Lake, Tyler County, WV.  Part of the 630 acre Conaway Run Wildlife Management Area, the lake is stalked with Trout, has a handicapped accessible fishing platform, and offers a primitive campground.
