Dawn Glow.

I woke up early the other morning and this is what I saw :)

I was so blown away, I had to drag myself out of bed to snap these photos before this beautiful glow disappeared and it did very quickly. (Of course, I fell back into bed and went straight back to sleep :)

As rain is predicted all week and it was very intense yesterday, I had to go and take a look at these shots to help me remember what a clear morning looks like.

Have you noticed that I blog a lot about the weather; I read recently that people use the weather in conversation as an ice breaker. Oops! Sorry about the luke warm pun :)

Anyway, I am not sure I agree with that statement but I do know that the weather is a huge part of our lives and especially for me it can sometimes either make or break the day :)

How about you?

Hope you are having a wonderful Monday!

Happy Painting/Creating! :) T.

wow what a beautiful morning! I'm lucky to say I haven't seen a sunrise in quite some time... haha! I'm a night owl.

Sometimes yes, and sometimes no. I can say that today was terrible in Boston. Snow that turned to rain, that ruined everything on the ground and in the air. yuck.

Those are lovely pictures! Definitely worth peeling yourself out of bed. :o) I bring up the weather in conversation all the time - especially if I can't think of anything else to say. I guess it's an easy part of small talk - like sports!

Hope you had a great Monday!

I saw that sunrise when I was driving into work!! Glad you captured it! Weather has always been a fascination for me too..I don't think it has to be an ice breaker..for some of us..it's just a fascination of how the world works! Maybe we'll have another good windstorm on Weds to shake things up!

Wow, stunning! Right now all I see in Iowa is white and more white. Oh and maybe a little gray! I am looking forward to spring when the colors come back ;-)

Hmmmm... it's hard not to talk about the weather when its kind of crappy.

Oh my, what a beautiful sunrise! Kind of takes your breath away! The weather is more than an ice-breaker for me too. On many days, my mood is dependent on the weather!
