What a difference a day makes. Yesterday we had crazy cool colorful clouds everywhere… and today none!!! Just a quiet sunrise over a fairly calm lake. Nothing too crazy. Just a quiet & serene Sunday sunrise.





























A few minutes later… as the reds & pinks turn to golden-orange colors!

And some times the bigger the skyshow… the bigger the photo you need it capture it all!

STUNNING!
One of the most colorful skyshows we’ve had in awhile.
Plenty of clouds & plenty of colors that kept evolving as the morning went on.
A stunning way to start my Saturday!






















































And the drama was back… with great clouds working the sky! Colorful splashes across dark clouds as they moved across the sky. Another beautiful start to another beautiful day!
























Early morning sunrise… just in time as the clouds were moving in fast. You could see the large bank of clouds moving in just as the sun was finally shining through. Beautiful reflections as the sky closed in… seemingly for the rest of the day.


































Not a cloud in the skies… except for a small cluster of wispy pinks a bit to the south of the sunrise?! A fairly quiet & seemingly uneventful sunrise… quiet, serene & very relaxed. That is until I met a “friend” along the path…
























Methinks that someone got this morning’s weather forecast wrong?!



I must admit that I had high hopes for a beautiful sunrise this morning. Lots of clouds for the sun to splash colors against. However, I fear that the sun was just on the wrong side of the clouds. And we barely got to see the sun at all… which caused a lot of sunrise drama, but not a colorful skyshow!
