Sunset, Sunrise

Spring must be in the air, because I've been waking up early enough to see the sunrise, and we even had one interesting sunset - another of those unusual sunsets in the east, while the western sky was grey.  Don't know how that happens!

These first three are the 'sunset in the east'.  I think this is the most extensive and brightest eastern sunset I've seen.  Really unusual patterns in those clouds!

And these three are the same view, but a sunrise.  The first two show the sky before the sun actually breaks the horizon; the last shows where the sun actually rises about 15 minutes later.

I haven't linked to any memes for awhile, so here is:

  2. Love the morning sunrises, the beginning of a brand new day, Very nice photos.
    The best sunsets and sunrises we have had are in the southwest desert. though.

  6. Beautiful! We've had a couple of days of strange sunsets- and I didn't photograph any of it. Thursday there were breaks in the western sky, and deep dark thunderstorm skies in the east. Last night there was a cloud formation in the west that looked like a massive V.

  8. Sunrise here comes pretty early, but it takes until 8:30 for it to get to the top of Goat Island to the east to poke it's face out. By then the sky is either overcast (no sunrise glow on the clouds) or a clear day. But I'll take a clear warm day any time, especially after such a long winter. - Margy
