Great reason to be an early riser... catch that deep pastel glow in the clouds midway through twilight.

Nothing speaks as powerfully to life's opportunity as a sunrise, and I am drawn to witness and record them.

Wow, what beautiful colors are glowing across this sky.......who needs the actual sun, with a rainbow like this???? Nice catch!

@Susan: Thanks for your V&C! Yes, the pre-rise views often have more of those really subtle and satisfying colors.
How you doin' (sounds like Joey's line on Friends) here at the tail end of day two, post-epi?... continuing to improve. I'm sure!
