SkyWatch ~ Sunrise, Port Fairy


Crossing the river at sunrise, it looked like it was a fizzer with
such a thick cloud cover.
I persevered and hurried up the hill where I would have a view
to the East over the sea and I am glad I made the herculean effort.


Here is the morning sun breaking through the clouds in all it's
glory, lighting up the day as well as the sea.


A lone jogger, dark against the golden path to the horizon,


a different angle on the ever rising sun,


and the glory of golden glow on the smooth sand as the water
plays is advance and retreat game with the shore.



I do so love your comments that keep me connected to the world
although I cannot reciprocate at the moment while your foreign
correspondent is on location.

Be well, be happy and thank you for your kind comments
