A Sunrise Photo

ssslogo

Last week I posted a sunset picture.  This week I’ll prove that I can get up to see a sunrise by posting a sunrise picture.  To see more sunrise/sunset pictures click on the logo above to go to the Sunday Sunrise/Sunset website.

This picture was also taken on Mount Nebo in Arkansas.  I got this picture by going to Sunrise Point on the mountain.  Although we got there just as it was beginning to get light, we had to wait some time to get this picture.  The sun has popped up above a layer of clouds.  The mountains on the other side of the valley can be seen below the sun and clouds.

I’ll have to admit that it takes a little more effort to get a sunrise picture,  especially on a cold, windy morning.  But I think the effort was worth it.

    Seeing the sunrise is one of the reasons why I enjoy my early morning walks every day. 🙂

    Yes, it was… I’m a not as brave as you – to get up so early… also, I don’t have a lovely place like “sunrise mountain” to photograph from. I have to work hard to get a good shot around here.

    Nice post! Come check out my Sunset!

    That is really beautiful. There’s nothing like a beautiful sunrise or sunset. Unfortunately, when we go on vacation my wife and daughter don’t want to get up early so we don’t get to see too many sunrises. I’ve always liked the early morning when it’s quiet and everything is not stirring.

    Hey George, you need to take Betsy to Alaska. 🙂

    Thanks to all of you for our kind comments. Neal, Betsy and I have talked about going to Alaska, but we haven’t made it yet.

    MommWizdom, I have seen your sunset pictures — beautiful.

    What a gorgeous shot! It certainly was worth the effort. I posted a sunrise this week, too – although I’m not really a morning person.
