Time to rise and shine.  by bkbinthecity

Time to rise and shine.

I have lived most of my life in Edmonton and I just love city life. There are so many different things to take pictures of each day. Not to say that rural living doesn't provide those opportunities but I just love city living.
Today while waiting for the bus to go to work I was looking at these highrise apartment condos and I noticed how only a few light were on. So there were a some people who were up and getting ready for the day and I guess quite a few of them were still enjoying a good sleep
So today this is just one of the reasons I love living in the city
Beautiful. I love the lights. I've always liked the city, too.

Cool

Nice shot! It's always interesting to see how many lights are on really late at night or early in the morning! Some people clearly don't need much sleep!

The city is exciting! Love this early morning shot and noticing who is up early. Very soft effect in this photo.
January 25th, 2013  
I love the city, too. Think of the dreams of those having a good sleep!

I'm a rural person myself...but I do enjoy visiting cities for a shkort time. I guess it is truly where you are raised. I do, however like the city lights at night
January 25th, 2013  
I like rural scenes but sometimes the city is fun too! I was already at work for a half hour before you took this! I love to get up early!
January 25th, 2013  
Really pretty shot!!
January 25th, 2013  
What a fabulous pov, Brian. I can fully understand why you love the city .. I love small town living, but miss the great and unending photo ops that you "big city" photographers have. :)
January 25th, 2013  
Nice shot.
January 25th, 2013  
cool lights!
January 25th, 2013  
Great shot Brian! I like the lights and the way you can see the city is just waking up. Looks like you had more snow!
January 25th, 2013  
Wonderful capture. I love the look of the still sleeping city.

City photos are so interesting. Nice photo.
January 25th, 2013  
Nice shot- it might be fun (in warmer weather) to watch them come on one by one.
January 25th, 2013  
good night photo
January 25th, 2013  
That is one great thing about living in the city... all the great night shots! Here it is very drab looking and I hope to get in to Saskatoon to take some nicer shots once it warms up a bit more. Thanks for sharing!
January 25th, 2013  
I rarely get to the city so it's always a pleasure to see your city shots. Interesting observations noted by you, too!
January 25th, 2013  
Very cool night shot! :)
January 25th, 2013  
Great shot..only a few apartment lights on!!!
January 25th, 2013  
Great cityscape shot but my eye is drawn to that snowy road
January 25th, 2013  
Lovely early morning cityscape!
January 25th, 2013  
Simply beautiful shot.

I see and feel what you saw in taking this picture. This is one of my favorite times of day. I love mornings when you have to have a ligth on in the house.
January 25th, 2013  
Great star-lights.
January 25th, 2013  
Really captures the feeling of early morning in winter!
January 25th, 2013  
the pic and the lines. A great tribute to you city
January 25th, 2013  
I love those light bursts! Fantastic capture!
January 25th, 2013  
Fun light bursts!
January 26th, 2013  
I love that too about the city, it is interesting to see how many people are up early, I think walking/driving through down town is always a fun experience as well. I have noticed that when I go home to see my family in the suburbs that it is way too dark, I can't imagine rural living, I need lights in my life! :-)
January 26th, 2013  
What a great shot, Brian. I love those bursts of light.
January 26th, 2013
