WATCHING THE SUN RISE by sangwann

WATCHING THE SUN RISE

On Saturday, when we were at my sister’s apartment in Xaghra, Gozo for the weekend, I woke up early on purpose to take some sunrise shots. I got out of bed in my pygamas and with my eyes half-closed got hold of the camera which I had prepared on the bedside table and walked over to the living area where there is a magnificent view of the valley which divides Xaghra from Nadur. Altoghether we were 3 couples in the apartment and I walked on tiptoes not to wake up the rest. But I almost got the scare of my life when I saw a silhouette against the glass of the large balcony doors. It was my sister-in-law, after all, who was up before me and who sat on a deckchair watching the sun rise slowly over the hill. Naturally she made a good shot to capture and so here it is.
Many thanks for looking and for your lovely comments on yesterday's picture.
Pretty sunrise and nice that you had someone to share it with :)
