Dawn, promising skies...shot this morning, for
a better view please click on photo to enlarge.
15 degrees to te left, the scene is gently aglow
with morning light and horse doth safely graze
Back to the main event an the scene has
dramatically changed to more subtle hues
surprisingly, as the sun emerges, the
clouds darken
The sun is up and smeone muzzles in on the action!
Never share a scene with animals or children,
they invarably steal it.
My thanks to the SkyWatch team for the great
task they perform to give us this wonderful
opportunity to share the wonders that we see.

Good morning Australia! Love the slow unfolding of the dawn you captured. Looks like your buddy is enjoying it, too.

ReplyDeleteNever use a moving foreground if you can help it!
ReplyDeleteA nice sunrise series. I like the 2nd one best with just a hint of color. And you're right about the animals and children!
ReplyDeleteIt seems like sunrise is the prevailing theme for this week. Thank you for rising early so that we can enjoy this as well.
ReplyDeleteLooks like the horse is enjoying the view;) Those are beautiful pictures. I didn't do skywatch this week.

nfortunately not my horse but my granddaughter's. Poppy just happened to be grazing above my garden and since we are good friends was nuzzling my face, and hands, and feet and generally taking an interest in what I was up to.

Poppy materialized as I was shooting. 'twas not my intention but hers.
An immencely great series of the sunrise! The last one of the horse was a climax - and my favourite! But I enjoyed them all.
