Today's Cold Sunrise

I thought I'd be posting some archived images today, but this morning we had a pretty dawn after the clouds and fog from the last couple of days lifted. So I went out in the cold before breakfast and took a couple of photos.
I'm certain there will be more early morning photos on Skywatch Friday.

    Your frosty tree against that blue sky is fabulous, Al. I hope you weren't in your PJ's! I'm in Denver and I'm going to bike tomorrow (if the wind dies down...).

    Spectacular!

    This may be a duplicate, because I detect some error.

    The amazing nature, the tree is frozen yet it doesn't die.
