Sunrise

I was up early this morning to do a breakfast at 7am & just saw this sunrise out of the window so nipped out to photo it. The weather looked very promising this morning but I should have been warned, the sky was a little too red for comfort. '' Red in the morning, shepherds warning'' & all that & sure enough it has been raining nearly all day !

Wow Pat - there really is a different effect from a sunrise compared to a sunset isn't there? And the blue sky is just incredible. Shame about the rain..... I'd have been hopeful if I'd seen this despite the warning!

[Peggy Sirk]

Beautiful morning sky despite the promise of rain! Too bad that brilliant blue didn't win out over the red.

[Michelle]

oh Wow!! what an amazing looking sky. Wonderful capture. :)

[Claire]

How wonderful and the fact that it is a Lancashire sunrise makes it all the better. Stunning.

[Jenn]

Lovely way to start your day! Great shot Pat! I've been waiting for a rainy day here for a while. Nothing better than a rainy day, cup of tea and movie :)

[Sarah Bremner]

Wow that is a spectacular sky! We had that rhyme at home too!
Hope it dries up soon!

I hardly ever get to see a sunrise as we don't get much of a view looking East from our house, this is lovely!
