WW: Awesome

This is a true Wordless Wednesday post for me.  There's nothing to be said about how beautiful this skyline is, right?! 

I was headed down to San Francisco last Saturday morning and HAD to stop in the church parking lot, down the street from my house just to take this shot.  I'm so glad I did too, because by the time I made my stop at Starbuck's the salmon color had turned to blue and white.


I tend to over use the word "awesome" but in this case, I think it fits.

Sunrise Over the Dairy

I love when rain is in the extended forecast.  It brings us cloud cover and beautiful sunrises and sunsets.  Here is the sunrise over the dairy and Stafford Lake the other morning.

I just can't take enough photos of both sunrises and sunsets.  Each one is different.  Whether it be the different cloud formations, or the fog creeping in or out. 



And I can never decide on just one photo to include in a post.  So here's the first, middle and last photos I took.


I can easily say, sunrises and sunsets are among my favorite things to photograph.
I hope you've been able to enjoy beautiful sunrises where you live.

Do you have a favorite thing to take photos of?

October Morning on the Dairy

It's mornings like this that I just have to stop and take in the surrounding beauty and be grateful for where and how I live on this dairy.  This morning, as I was getting Bryce's lunch ready for school, I happened to glance out the kitchen window and spotted this beautiful sunrise.  It wasn't early, about 7 a.m.  but I knew if I didn't just drop what I was doing, this beautiful salmon colored sunrise would be gone.  It only took a few moments to walk out the slide door, onto the deck and snap a couple of photos, hoping they would do what I was witnessing, justice.....of course they didn't.  It was much more vibrant in person.















And just like that, it was gone.  More clouds moved in and there was no sign of the sun for the rest of the day.













Another thing I'm grateful for, living on the dairy is all the wildlife that makes this land their home and the fact that I am able to have visual contact with it on a daily basis.  On the way back from dropping Bryce off at school, one of our resident Cooper's Hawks was perched on a branch on the side of the road that leads up to our house.  I was glad I had brought  my camera with me on the ride.



















I was able to snap two quick shots before my feathered friend flew off.

















Happy Friday!
