These were taken between 4:15 and 4:45 a.m. facing west. The light comes from a greenhouse in Fort Valley, Georgia. The final photos are taken near the structure, showing the lit up roof.

The light shining over the Fort Valley sky in these photos is spectacular.
The greenhouse is lit up every morning around four a.m. and shows up best when there are low-lying clouds. The glow from the ground can be seen every morning, though. This would be impossible to see in Atlanta where there’s so much light pollution.
