Sunrise 20110526

Great reason to be an early riser... catch some interestingly striated clouds across the face of the just-risen sun (better viewed large-on-black )(and also enjoy thepost-rise view.. as the Raleigh area heads back up into the 90s again).

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

nice one Tony! i really like the sun rippled by the clouds just over the trees - great capture!

@DarkElf: Thanks, DE! You know, in the absence of the sun, you'd never know the clouds were layered like that. With the extreme brightness contrast, sunrises frequently reveal interesting features. Thanks, again!
