Mysticaly Veiled Sunrise

I'm not going to have a running dialog about each of this mornings sunrise pictures .. the pictures speak for themselves and I still each and every sunrise .. have goosebumps watching it happen.
Not every morning is dramatic .. but you feel that amazing pull watching the sun rise .. there is something most definitely magical about them all and that I get to see them!


These moments were stunning to watch .. I held my breath so long I think I turned blue ?
The haze and a different weather pattern moving in, gave it that gauze covered look ...
The clouds looked like they were on fire swirling in front of the sun .. the random birds were perfect !

I like to show the 'whole" picture from where I have my stand point on the deck watching this unfold.


It became a "star" then was engulfed by the clouds .. I loved every second of it all !

Thanks Linda girl : )Yes the rain is helping me not worry about the garden too much right now .. being out of commission and not working in the garden is truly driving me NUTS ! LOL

Thank you JayLeigh .. it was awesome to watch : )

Joey girl thank you ! truly a spectacular one which is not common in the summer : )

Just beautiful, Joy! A truly miraculous thing to witness, since each sunrise is a different entity! Gorgeous photos.

As always, exquisite photos, Joy. I rarely see the sunrise, as I stay up so darn late and gotta sleep sometime...

Sunrise, sunset, we have had grey days of drizzle, and no one is complaining. Do we actually live in BC here?

Kind of nice having wet days, the flowers look almost as lovely as your sunrises.

I am waiting to see some around here, so I can get up and go to the beach. But that darn Bootsie keeps waking me up at 2:30 am so by 5 I fall asleep again.

So meanwhile I live through yours.

Thank you Heather .. it was a "keeper" for sure : )

Monica Thank you !
I just popped over to your place and you have made me crave those wonderful dishes (especially the chocolate ! wink wink )
I am a morning person most of the time and sunrises are like a personal treat for me .. only the girls and I are up at that time and it is special .. they are soul filling moments for me : )

Jodi girl thank you !
I don't blame you for grasping at sleep when ever you can .. I go to bed at a VERY early time so that is what gives me those moments in the morning .. but as the time is shifting it is getting later .. some how I have to convince the girls of that too ! haha

Jen girl thank you ! .. hey I remember those years we spent living on Vancouver Island .. a lot of gray wet days .. but that scenery was amazing ! .. Bootsie is very naughty ! haha .. I have to train my girls to hold back a little longer too now .. Emma throws herself at the bedroom door with a BIG thump .. I can't ignore it ? haha .. What I would give to have a walk on the beach ! you are so lucky : ) enjoy it when you can girl !

Thank you Sandy : ) Some mornings I have my face plastered to the deck door glass watching to see if it will be one of those sunrises .. some mornings my excitement drops to utter disappointment .. but these are the ones that make up for it !
