The last couple of mornings we've had some intense sunrises this mornings was particularly impressive.
Heavenly skies over St Monans
St Monans Church dates from 1369 and is situated in an isolated position to the west of the village on the very edge of the sea. It is perched on a low rock, over a small valley with a burn. As seen from most directions it has the sea as a backdrop. The original graveyard surrounds the church and a more modern cemetery stands further westwards on the upper slopes of the little hill. This contains the local war memorial. Standing at the extreme west end of this the ruin of an earlier church can be viewed across fields, again perched on the sea edge.
the angels are working overtime this year singing out their message -
Peace on Earth
Good Will toward men
seen two years ago on this day in the window of the Delta Hospital Auxiliary Thrift Store.
Looking across the valley is great inspiration to start down this ski run at Heavenly Ski Resort, Tahoe, NV

The setting sun unexpectedly creates the illusion of a heavenly pyramid at the site of the Iglesia Bautista Resurreccion on SW 27th Avenue. Miami, Florida, USA.

On a frigid evening, bilevel car 308 brings up the rear of eastbound South Shore Line train 111 at Kensington-115th Street on the far south side of Chicago. Though eastbounds often pause along the platform here for signal clearance through Kensington Junction, they have not actually called at the station for a number of years now. On the right is the Kingdom Word Church, originally a Greek (Orthodox?) Catholic congregation, as far as I can tell.

It's funny how things come together at times. It was the last morning of my vacation. I get my 4 a.m. wake up call from the roosters. I get up look out the window and it's pouring rain. I'm thinking to myself what a way to enjoy my last day on vacation. I get back into bed, and lie there for the next hour listening to the roosters just hoping and wishing for the rain to stop. 5 a.m. comes around and it's still raining. What should I do? Should I get up and go? Should I just stay in bed and go back to sleep? All these thoughts are going through my head. I'm making myself mental!
I decide to get up and go. I make my 15min drive to the location. It's still raining with no signs of any breaks. I get to the parking lot, look to the east. Rain......a lot of rain. I get back into the truck and sit for the next half an hour watching the rain contemplating if I should stay or leave. Wait.......I see a break on the horizon. The sky has a real faint glow, but it's at least a 15 min hike down to the beach. The trail down to the beach here is very steep. If it has been raining, forget about it. The trail is slick and muddy. There wouldn't be enough time to get down to the beach, so I decide to go with my plan B; shoot from the cliffs. I make my way slowly down the trail. I'm slipping and sliding all over the place. I get to the spot where I want to be at, I set up, and start shooting. The scene at this point is dark and moody with subtle light on the horizon. After a few frames the rain starts really coming down. I tried to stick it out in the rain for as long as I could but it was just too much. I pack my gear up in defeat. The conditions weren't in my favor this time around, but it's ok.......I've got great light at this location 4 days in row! ;-)
I make my way back up the trail, I take one last look at this killer view and all of a sudden I see this glow on the sea cliffs. The glow starts to get more intense, I can't say the curses that came out of my mouth, but I was swearing up a storm as I ran back down the trail slipping and sliding all over the place. The heart pounding heavy breathing intensity that was going through my body was crazy. The light started illuminating the shore line as if someone had slowly open the blinds in a room that was dark. When I was focusing in live view at x10 I could see the sunlight piercing through the rain! It was one of the most incredible scenes that I have seen. I would say this was a great way to start the morning.
Moving into Slale Creek on my trip up to Eternal Flame falls with fellow waterfall lovers, Joe and Alicea (wnywaterfallers) we were presented with a series of exquisite light shafts down in the quiet and serene glen.
NO INVITES OR ICONS PLEASE
Well, two anyway, Venus and New Moon with the addition of a passing aircraft in the twilight at Aberdyfi, Gwynedd, Wales.
A Heavenly Touch

This is my second shot taken from The Remarkables looking down on the valley below with Queenstown in the distance. I loved the way the light was shining through the clouds, giving a golden glow to a select patch of earth.
A big shout out to Timothy Poulton and his One Of A Kind Photography Adventures for making this trip happen!
I took this photo using the following equipment:
Nikon D800E
Schneider PC TS Super-Angulon 50mm f/2.8 Lens
Lee Graduated Neutral Density Filters
I've got to say, I just love Scotland, the country is so diverse in so many ways from its landscape to its culture, its food and its music, its no wonder that it is called the best small country in the world. Come take a look but avoid the tourist places and come and see the real Scotland. In this shot you can see a small part of the mountainous North West Highlands.
Hey guys! I just wanted to thank you for all of your support. You have no clue how much it means to me. So thank you for being such amazing friends and have a wonderful day!

This is my first try at composite photography, was a lot of fun and challenging. This picture was made up of three separate photos and combined in Photoshop.
The lake is so heavenly that the mountain has its own "HALO" 😇.
Have a wonderful new week my friends!
