With crazy cool winds coming in off the lake, the waves were churning & splashing. Waves everywhere!!! Winds blowing the cooler temps… almost a bit chilly. Especially when my timing was off… and I got a bit of a misty spray in the face!

Quiet & still this morning along the lakefront with some dappled clouds covering the sky. Good potential to color the sky… but it never really happened. Instead we got some cool shrouded sunrise photos with the sun playing hide & seek behind the clouds!

Another stunning sunrise morning. A little cooler with a lot less humidity… it was so pleasant pedaling this morning! Lots of clouds doing cool things on the horizon.

And once again… a sunrise skyshow this huge
needs a “huge-er” panoramic photo to show it off!!!

Another crazy-cool skyshow this morning!!! The humidity was a bit out of control… literally dripping with sweaty after just minutes of riding!!! But once your drenched… you can’t get “more’ drenched, right? And it was well worth it… as the sunrise was SPECTACULAR today!!!

And while the skyshow was happening over the lake, the City skyline
was punctuated with a few puffs of clouds easing through.

I couldn’t decide which panoramic photo was better… so here’s another one!

You choose…

And sometimes a bigger “skyshow” just calls for a BIGGER panoramic photo!!!

t was very “still” along the lakefront today. No waves. No wind. And not a lot of people out… as it was still quite warm & sweaty!!! But with a skyshow like this?… STUNNING in its simple serenity!

It was a very dark start for my morning ride. With a LOT of clouds covering the horizon… I was excited to se this little sliver of sunrise beauty when I made it over to the lakefront. I was kind of expecting “just clouds”… so this splash of color was a great moment with stunning reflections shimmering on the lake. And then the clouds moved in even more… welcome to my gray morning!
