Don't have much time today, but here's a colorful sunrise I photographed from our back patio last week…
We've had several beautiful skies lately and I've photographed each of them, so I hope to share those next week on...
In memory of President John F. Kennedy
May 29, 1917 - Nov 22, 1963
What a glorious way to welcome a new day. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteIt is indeed! And how lucky we are that so many of our days begin with such beautiful skies. Thanks, as always, for visiting, Ellie Sue! :-)
DeleteStunning colors and sky captures! Have a happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Eileen, and the same to you!
DeleteWe've also had some excellent sunrises this week, though they often later descended into grey gloominess. Yours are spectacular!
ReplyDeleteThe best sunrises are the ones with clouds, but most of our days have done the opposite of yours lately. And while I wish you abundant sunshine, I'm glad your days have at least had beautiful beginnings! :-)
DeleteBeing an early riser definitely has it's perks! Beautiful, as always!
ReplyDeleteIt sure does! And thanks, Molly! Happy weekend!
DeleteJust wonderful, which shows that you do, indeed, make a difference ;-).
ReplyDeleteAwww, thanks Spudly! :-)
DeleteThanks for remembering JFK. I'm still stunned that such a thing happened.
ReplyDeleteYou bet, veganelder. I was about 6 weeks shy of my 2nd birthday when he was assassinated and so have no personal recollection of the event, but even after all this time, watching the Zabruder footage still makes me cringe and footage of the funeral makes me tear up. I can't imagine having experienced it at an age to comprehend it, but I suppose it was one of those awful watershed moments like the 9-11 attacks or even the explosion of the Challenger. Just surreal and terrible.
DeleteBy the way, my dad was a Marine captain at the time, and company commander of the Ceremonial Guard Company at Marine Barracks 8th and I in Washington, DC at the time of President Kennedy's assassination, and led his company in the funeral procession.
How utterly gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThank you! We really do get some beautiful skies here - but then, so do you!! Aren't we lucky? :-)
DeleteOkay... I'm getting out the oil paints! These are incredible photos! Marvelous inspiration! :)
ReplyDeleteThey do look like oil paintings, don't they? Glad you find them inspiring (and thanks for pinning one of them!) :-)
DeleteI did say that I was seeing some pretty sunrises but nothing like this. Wow!!
ReplyDeleteI know, we finally started getting some really great ones last month - the kind I was wishing we'd get while you were visiting just the month before… but alas! The skies refused to cooperate.
