A chilly autumn sunrise at 9100'. Lake Sabrina was formed in 1907 when the Nevada California Electric Company dammed Bishop Creek to create hydroelectric power for eastern California.
The Eastern Sierra range is pretty country year-round. In autumn its high density of quaking aspens create a colorful scene for photographers. At first light, however, there is very little color variation, with blues and greys dominating the palette.
Congrats on Explore!

In all of North America, this person had the sunlight touch them first. Captured on the edge of the continent at Cape Spear, Newfoundland one very chilly morning
Down to the Marina at Caleta de Fuste, Fuerteventura, hoping to catch another glorious sunrise only to find the place was shrouded in a heavy morning mist. Once the sun eventually managed to break through, the mist soon dispersed. Although the mist was quite thick, the harbour’s starboard beacon was still visible; as it should be….!
First light on the Pacific Ocean — Snapper Rocks at Coolangatta on the south end of the Queensland Gold Coast.
Dawn's first sunlight illuminates the cobwebs that countless toiling spiders have draped across the gorse and heather.

Being full of cold and wide awake from 3am, I made the decision to venture out and capture this morning's sunrise (Insomnia has its use) It was nice to finally be out and about after the poor spell of weather lately.
The wind was quite strong so I had to shelter the camera during the exposure.

I was checking our sprinkler system just as the sun was rising. This shot was unplanned, but the sun aligned with this tower when I reached for my camera. Serendipity!

The Mew Gull is a very pretty one and among my preferred one, but what I love mostly here is the beautiful colours the sun is offering when rising over the lagoon.

A sleeping Quebec City wakes up slowly. Sitting high above the city at Terrasse Pierre-Dugua-De-Mons with our mini tripod and a cup of coffee in hand I enjoyed the sunrise and this incredible view in [almost] complete isolation.
“Terrasse Pierre-Dugua-de Mons, at the end of popular Rue St. Denis, is a welcome oasis (it's part of the larger Champs-de-Bataille park). The green space has views of the ever-magnificent Chateau Frontenac, as well as the Dufferin Terrace and the city of Levis (a picturesque destination on the south shore of the St. Lawrence). It's a relaxing, grassy stopping point and is a nod to the city's history—it's named after French merchant and colonizer Pierre Dugua. Dugua is the one who gave the order for Samuel de Champlain to found a French trading point, better known today as Quebec City.”

FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE – MATT MONRO
I cannot sleep
I walk the street
deserted now and Winter bleak
the Beast strike two sweeps from the East
from Russia with love
and Scandinavia sends me the sweetest dove
that sings so beautifully in first light
and tugs my heart strings makes me fight
against the darkness that has silenced me
the icy grip that will not set me free
will you walk one day in my shoes
and I will walk one day in yours
reconvene as midnight strikes on the hour
settle up outstanding scores
no I didn't think so ...
these wounds are more mine than yours
I don't doubt that you have suffered
but this does not detract
from this haunting melancholy melody
that plays upon the loop on a single solemn track
my tears freeze on my cheeks as I give way and mourn
and wandering silently I try to weather this latest storm
I can hear you wondering what is she saying now
but I took a vow of silence and once upon a time somehow
the circle of life goes round and round
it spins and turns and hits the ground
running here and running there
finding nothing no-one cares
people live their lives in drifts
to speak out loud won't heal the rifts
each to our own and own your grief
as I own mine and place a wreath
upon the frozen snowbound land
and reach out for an invisible hand
I still feel the warmth where once
a loving hand that was yours held mine
before this day and love grew cold
and squeezed the warmth from all the sunshine
devoid of all my spent emotions
I trickled back to whence I'd come
the house where I just go through the motions
waiting is so futile for you'll not be coming home
now all the world begins to waken
and I at last fall into bed
my mind is slowing my thoughts are leaving
oblivion takes me and cushions my emptying head
and when I wake for just a moment
I won't remember anything
the time between my sleep and waking
is the most precious time I think
where child-like innocence still exists
and adult worries are cast aside
I wish that it could last for longer
so I don't have to run and hide
now is the calm not before but after
the storm that is named as Mr Darcy
and pride came first before the fall
and the prejudice against me was the wrecking ball.

First light behind Moel Siabod during a busy weekend for Snowdonia! Thankfully we ventured to some of the less popular peaks and didn’t see a soul!
One of my favorite shots from the expedition. First light in the morning at the sand dunes. SOOC with a polarizer filter.
Woodland bathing in the first rays of sunlight as the mist slowly burns off.
Thanks to everyone who Faves my photos, leaves me comments and who follow me.
Another glorious morning in the Tuscany, at famous Podere Belvedere.
Enjoy...

First light graces the peaks of the Continental Divide: (l to r) Navajo Peak (13409 ft / 4087 m), Apache Peak (13441 ft / 4097 m), and Shoshoni Peak (12967 ft / 3952 m). Despite the advancing change of seasons there were still flowers out, mainly in areas with late-lying snow such as the foreground. Lake Isabelle is just up over the rise, but as per usual this time of year the water level was low to meet irrigation needs downstream (there's tunnel that drains the lake, which is in the middle of a wilderness area).
The morning silence is interrupted by the roar of EMDs as the Indiana Railroad's HWSZT rolls along with seven locomotives. Taken just west of Sullivan, IN, about 10 minutes after sunrise.

Aerial sunrise at the beach with colourful high cloud at Umina Point, Umina Beach on the Central Coast, NSW, Australia.
Waking up at 4 am and trekking up to Poon Hill 3210 m Nepal in darkness and in freezing coldness from Ghorepani 2800m took almost 1.5 hrs but the effort was well rewarded a spectacular view of the Himalayan Snow Mountains Range directly infront of me with people from all over the world.
