Looking East

Red Sky at Morning

The Rosy Fingers of the Dawn . . .. . .

Sunrise Sunday

Summer Solstice

Another turn of the wheel. 

Summer begins and the sunrises have gone as far north as they can. Tomorrow's sun will be just a hair to the south, heading for the Fall Equinox when it take center stage in our eastern view. . .

. . . continuing northwards toward December 21 and the Winter Solstice --when the Great Dance begins anew.

Circuit of the Sun

The moonlight made the dogs restless and they paced and whined and generally disturbed our rest. So when the room began to brighten yesterday morning, I just pulled the covers over my head in hopes of a bit more sleep. 

But then I couldn't resist coming up for air to see what the morning looked like. All I had to do was lift my head and open my eyes. 

And what a reward! A sky full of pink cloud sheep -- moutons, as Miss Yves tells me the French call the clouds when they flock together like that. 

I don't know how many sunrise pictures I've taken over the years. A lot.

Here's a slide show of sunrises from January to January. I love watching the sun's movement from south to north and back again.
