Excellent capture of the mornng sun. I particularly like the light coming through the trees onto the white ground snow. The impacted snow on the side of the trees is pretty neat too!
At first a small line of inconceivable splendour emerged on the horizon, which, quickly expanding, the sun appeared in all of his glory, unveiling the whole face of nature, vivifying every colour of the landscape, and sprinkling the dewy earth with glittering light. - Ann Reacliffe
The reason why the sunsets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
A very pretty winter sunrise, Thad. The golden, dawn light and long shadows look great spreading out on the pristine, untracked snow. Great exposure, as well. I'm surprised you could rise out of bed so early after shoveling all that snow. :)
Amazingly beautiful sight! :) Although when looking it up close there is some blurriness in the trees. Despite this, I really like the colors and how the sun's beams of light stretch between the trees.
Hello Thad...A beautiful warm winters scene...I love how you have used the light to your advantage....The shadows of the trees are great lead in lines....Well done....All the very best to you Thad...................................Mick.
