St Margaret's Sunrise

Well I finally managed it - my dogs kept on pestering to go out in the garden during the night, so in the end I gave up the battle to get some sleep and got up to chase the dawn. At extremely silly o'clock! Not a flamboyant affair of orange and yellow, just gentle pinks and greys but that was fine by me.

[Debby Davies]

Wow simply beautiful

[Sally Ings]

Looks beautiful non the less! Good on you for persevering and getting out there for it. I must admit that it's my best time of the day and I have no issues with getting up before the birds!

[Connie Little]

Beautiful light and colours. Wonderful sunrise capture.

@365projectorgdebbydavies @salza @littleconnie @tanithrose @hermann @gijsje @jclaireyp @merrelyn @kwind @peadar @randystreat @johnsutton @brennieb @robinm @megpicatilly @suesouthwood @lovingandsharing @suzanne234 @robz @pyrrhula @joannakate @redandwhite Thanks so very much for your kindness, I read each and every comment, and appreciate every single one. I don't know about the dogs wanting me to get a good shot, they did get quite excited at being piled into the car at a ridiculous time of day, even if they did just sit there! I certainly hope they don't do it again tomorrow:) St Margaret's Bay is actually not a lake, it's on the coast just along from Dover. And Catherine, can I send Tally to live with you??

[Rick]

@dide @casablanca @tonygig @ziggy77 @fayefaye @elatedpixie @Cherrill @yrhenwr @gardenfolk Thanks very much indeed for your time in viewing and commenting. There's not much danger that I will repeat this for quite a while, I spent a large part of that day asleep after taking this!

[FBailey]

@megpicatilly Oh thanks Catherine, I'm sure @redandwhite will send her back to me so I'll start packing her toys today :))
