On Monday morning, whilst I waited for the run to rise over the trail, I stepped to the side and took a few photographs looking toward a farm field through a clearing. Last year, I did take a number of direct photos of that lane and field, so I was content to photograph from this limited angle on that morning. It gave me something to occupy myself for a few minutes while remaining very close to where I had decided to photograph the sun over the trail.
It is four minutes from the first to the third photo, but I think you can see how the scene was brightening quickly. The sun was just about rising off the right of the frame in the final image.
It is much easier and usually better to keep the actual sun out of the frame as we have in this series as opposed to the the trail series from two days ago, but I may return for another trail photo as I have a slight variation in mind from those earlier photos.
Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteLovely scenes, fantastic photos. Hope you are feeling much better after your surgical procedure of the other day. :)
ReplyDeleteThese are quite striking! I'm sorry you were up early, but happy for your photos!

ReplyDeleteThe silhouettes of those trees are really striking. Lovely, all.
ReplyDeleteI love the last one, mist across the fields, sun through various clouds, silhouettes of trees! Everything looks lovely! I forgot to say something yesterday about Sue's outfit...a beautiful top with crocheted inserts...I would imagine she made it! Stunning!
ReplyDeleteThose trees are stunning with the glow behind them!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful area you live in. Great photos.
ReplyDeleteI love that last one. That tree is glorious.
ReplyDeleteLove the last one too.
ReplyDeleteOh, my! These are stunning!
ReplyDeleteSunrise happens so quickly; much faster than sunset.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful series, you are an extraordinary photographer.
ReplyDeleteI have seen professional photographers run to catch a specific bit of light in the early morning or late afternoon.
ReplyDeleteVery nice photographs. You have given me something to remember when trying to capture sunlight in my future snaps. Thanks.

ReplyDeleteSunrises and sunset sure can be pretty. I plan to stay around to see more
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on and stay safe
Beautiful images!!!! I am also very glad for you that your skin issues have been taken care of!!!! The risks of sun exposure worry me greatly too. I am unfortunately very pale skinned and I had one bad sunburn as a kid. This far, I have fortunately not had issues, but I have been very faithful about sunscreen the last 25 years, and before that I have been pretty careful to cover up and/or avoid the strongest sun of the day in teen years and in adulthood for the decades prior to using sunscreen. But I still worry.
