Looking East--around 6 AM and 7 PM

I'd hoped to catch the actual sunrise but the mist blocked everything within minutes of this shot.

       

 And then, in the evening . . .

Happy To Be Here

Inching Toward Spring

                                                        

The rising sun is working its way from the far right of this photo to a bit beyond the left edge which will be the equinox. A ways to go but even slow progress out of winter is welcome.

Looking East, 7:30 AM

Early Morning with Jenny

                                                                                    

I probably wouldn't crawl out of a warm bed before sunup to go out and appreciate the dawn in below freezing weather if it weren't for Jenny. But she needs to attend to business, so out we go.

And what a gift, to enjoy the day's dawning and the pastel sky etched with dark branches!

Jenny seems appreciative too.

Early Morning, Thanks to Jenny

 Because Jenny likes to run around and howl, we try not to let her out on her own recognizance till after nine. And she's up by seven thirty. So this means a leashed stroll out back to attend to the necessary.

Could be worse. These days the leaves are falling, swirling gold around us till I feel like Danae in the myth. It's kinda magical--but hard to capture on camera when a hound is pulling at you.

Still, the increasingly bare trees are etching lovely patterns against the pastel morning sky and it's a pleasure to be out in a beautiful fall dawn.

In Dreams

                                                                        

In dreams I travel 

To the peaceful place beyond--

And all is joyful.

Golden Sunrise

 

A New Day

 

Morning Glory

 

Veiled Sunrise

 

Sunrise for a Hot Day

A little after seven, I sat on the front porch, waiting . . .

Cloudless mornings suggest a hot day ahead.

And here it comes!

Back inside, I was hit with a reflection of the event in a picture frame.

 

Wait for It

                                                                                   

 

Silent Sunday

 

Looking East

Almost fifty years here and we're not yet bored with the view.
