Inspiration of a Morning Sunrise

, ,

Winter Sunrise over swimming pool

There is nothing like a gorgeous sunrise to kick-start one’s day into full motion (perhaps with some caffeine to help it along)!

WordPress posted the theme Rise/Set for the weekly photo challenge.

I am a photo addict of sunrises and sunsets, so I couldn’t pass this one up while on my continuing blogging break. The timing was perfect to coincide with the publishing of my new page.

I am happy to announce that fellow blogger and photographer, Aixa from MuchoSpanish, and I have each published pages for the Sundays Stills photo challenge as we introduce this new feature. Aixa will be my co-host for the feature which will also be a continuing link-up.

Photo credit goes to my hubby who took this photo while at work last winter at one of the public swimming pools he services. Talk about a great inspiration to the workday!

Happy Easter to those who celebrate!

  7. Hi Ter! What a fantabulous photo!!!! I always seemed to be too late for the sunrise photos, but like you, I’m obsessed with sunsets and I did manage to capture some beauties while away too. ❤

  9. Mornings are the best part of the day, Terri. That photo is one of the best I’ve seen. I’m sure it would win a few photo contests.
    Hope you had a great Easter and that the Easter Bunny visited with some chocolate. He always seems to know what kind I like.

    1. Thanks so much, Hugh! Amazing what cell phones can capture, huh? As for chocolate, I believe I have a permanent Easter bunny with special daily deliveries 😉

  11. Like you, I love colorful sunrises and sunsets. While we have witnessed many spectacular ones living on the water (especially sunsets), they – and dolphin spotting – never get old! Each evening, here in Santa Fe, I get up to check the sunset of the day, and maybe, take another photo. Sunset photo 510, probably. 🙂

    Hi, Terri – I am so glad to see you taking a ‘break’ from your ‘blogging break’. That sunset, and it’s reflection, are both stunning. Thank you for sharing this!
