Sunrise Over the Pacific by taffy

Sunrise Over the Pacific

Up early for work, easily done because I'm simply staying on Chicago time, sleeping in til 10:00 a.m., but that's only 6:00 a.m. here (except by 9:00 at night I'm exhausted!). My reward -- amazing sunrise today! Started very gray and then suddenly the sun popped through the clouds and everything turned orange, red, and yellow.
After our morning of work, we played golf -- we had a rainbow over us for almost half the time we played (in extras album- http://365project.org/taffy/special-photos/2013-12-19). What an area!
Thank you for staying with me despite my lack of commenting. I'm reading your comments and appreciating your support. Work is mostly over and I'm moving into total vacation mode -- looking forward to viewing your photos, commenting, and catching up!
Taffy, this is stunning! The silhouettes of the palms against the saturated orange sky are breathtaking! Hawaii is such a magical place.

One of the nicest gifts of Aloha to tourists arriving from the east is the time change that gets them up for sunrises! You got a magnificent one here! Your foreground is absolutely and purely Hawaiian...no mistaking it!

@Weezilou Ah -- thank you for visiting this. I did love being there and you're right about the time zone difference being a gift.
