As we were driving in Wyoming this past Friday, We stopped to photograph a beautiful sunrise (Second photo). Its a bit over saturated, but it was so beautiful. Let me start over ...

We woke up early so we could get into Utah at a good time. We departed from this cool AirB&B in Cheyenne early in the morning. It was foggy and the tempearture was in the low 40s. Yes, it was cold. As we made our way across I-80, I noticed the pending sunrise on the horizon. We needed to stop for a bio break so pulled off at one of the few rest stops along 80. It was must meant to be: the sunrise as about to show up in a spectualar way. As we started to snap photos, I noticed this female Brewer's Blackbird in a tree near me. She flew away, so we continued to photography the sunrise. Minutes later, she returned, so I changed lens and photographed her as she appeared to be watching the sunrise with us.

A Fall Sunrise

This photo goes back a few weeks. It was right after a local farmer had finish his harvest. It was a cool morning, but much warmer than today. The sun had just risen and the clouds provided a nice contrast to the blue sky. The colors the sun brought to the morning made this a beautiful shot. I sure love the outdoors.

Teresa and I drove to Columbus (Ohio) earlier this week. The sunrise was beautiful, so we had to pull over and snap a few photos. I took the top photo, and Teresa took the other two. Beautiful morning. These photos were shot over a 5 minute period of time. The location of the top photo was maybe 2 miles from where we shot the other two.

Just Before Sunrise …

Teresa and I had to take a drive to Columbus (Ohio) yesterday. It was apparent that we were not going to get out for any hiking and photography, so she brougth her camera and we both had our iPhones with us. The 1st photo is just a few mintues before sunrise. The pink and yellow hues were gorgeous.

I took the second photo with my iphone. Amazing what a 60 to 120 second delay looks like just before the sun rises over the horizon.

I was going to edit out the wires, but as you can see, I left them in. :).

The trip was uneventful!
