@Susan: I wish this shot went a little higher in the sky... picked up some of the blue up there. You bet: that relatively zoomed view eliminated most of the buildings... the Rite Aid store is still pretty prominent, though. Thanks for your V&C, Susan.

You don't wanna crop the Rite aid store? It doesn't matter though, that peeking sun is the story. Beautiful colors too.

@mats: Funny thing... I rarely even see the stuff in the foreground, except the trees sometimes. You're so right: the sun and the colors it imparts comprise the story. Thanks for stopping by, Mats!

youve got a great idea in taking the best shots of the sun one can find... and its available everyday. your photos are fun to see. they make up for the fact that i dont wake up early enough to see sunrise.

@MisfiredPixels: Thanks for your visit & your nice comment, MFP... I really appreciate both! I'm having fun with this hobby, and it never gets old, that's for sure. As I've told others, it helps greatly that I'm an early riser by nature... and now and early-to-bedder, too! Thanks again!
