Sunrise: The View Behind
The direction away from the sun as it rises often provides a show equal to or better than the sunrise itself. On this morning the clouds didn’t catch any color but it sure was pretty. Gulls in the air and Pelicans skimming the surf added to the scene, taken about 15 minutes before sunrise.
Sunrise Behind Tree
Once the sun rose above the horizon it was too much to look at. This dead tree made a nice block for some of the glare.
Peaceful Prelude
About 20 minutes before sunrise on Sunday, this was a peaceful place to be.

Pond Sunrise
It had been our intention to be at a different pond when the sun came up but between getting out the door a few minutes late and a truck ahead of us that was indecisive that didn’t happen. I don’t think our original destination could have been any prettier than this. Unless there was a bird, or two, in the water.

Sunrise Over Marsh 2
There were a few birds in the air as the sun was coming up Sunday morning, including this Great Blue Heron off in search of breakfast.
The sky displayed glorious colors for about five minutes. Click the image below for a larger view and you’ll see two birds just above and to the right of the sun.

Sunrise Over Marsh
There was a little fog rolling around the edges of the marsh as the sun inched its way up over the tree line.
The thick cloud bank at the horizon muted the colors.
When the sun had cleared the distant tree tops high wispy clouds mixed the blues and oranges in a delicate palette.
