Blazes

Starting another day, the sun blazes into view to start another day.

Focusing.

Focusing on the foreground, at the bottom of the image, added an interesting perspective to the buildings in the mid-range of this image of the full moon just before sunrise.

Rides high.

A fingernail moon rides high in the early morning sky.

Sunrise.

I was compelled to capture this image of a marvellous late winter sunrise.

Sliver

Water ponded in a field reflects only a tiny sliver of a gorgeous late winter dawn.

Adds a dash.

A splash of pale pink adds a dash of colour to an otherwise grey and white early morning landscape.

Reflects.

A distant house reflects early morning light as the full moon still shines high in the sky.

Promise fulfilled.

Before today, only four days this month had been mostly sunny. This mornings’ lovely dawn promised that today would be Day 5.

The promise was fulfilled. I was, am, very grateful.

Welcome.

It was a pleasure to welcome a new day.

It is good to be alive.

Dull.

Wreathed by a thin sheet of cloud and haze, this morning the sun presented a dull yellow face.
