powerful palette

There was a sample of every shade of orange this morning in the east as the sun rose. As many of you know my bedroom window faces east (as well as the living area, and master bath), and I love to keep the shade up to enjoy the night sky and the early morning light. It was spectacular! The color was so intense it seemed unnatural, yet there is was---on the horizon.

I've pondered some works of art that are colorful and thought it must be artistic license that allows a landscape to be so saturated with color. And photographs, with all the technology to alter the image, are often dismissed as "photoshopped."

The universe reminded me about how immense and wonderful it is, and how 10 minutes at sunrise can be inspirational.


Quote from Robert Browning;

"If you get simple beauty and nought else, You get the about the best thing God invents,"


take care
