Special Sunrise

On Friday we had one of those incredible sunrises.
I was putting the laptop in the car to head to work, but I just had to fetch my camera and wait to take some photos of the spectacular skies - I'm lucky that I don't have to be at work at a specific time. I'm sure you'll find some more beautiful sunrises if you head over to Skywatch Friday.

  4. Spectacular sky show just for you and through you for us too. Both sheer magic, almost like an aurora. You don't get tickets to a show like that every day, you were right to enjoy it to the full and be late for work. As my mother used to way to me when she saw I was over tired, 'work is not a rabbit, it never runs away'. At other times though, her advice would be 'don't leave until to-morrow what you can do today'!
