Horses at Sunrise/ Sky Watch

Sunrise but looking WESTERLY at horses in the early morning sunshine

The golden light and the way it shines on the clouds to turn them pink makes it worth getting up early.

    I always think there is something special about the light in the Fall. Don't know what makes that so.

    Early morning light is my favorite when I can see it. My home is on a west facing hillside, however, so I don't usually see the sun until it is well up in the sky.
    Beautiful picture!

    You have the wide-open skies we have in the prairie where sunrises and sunsets can be seen all around. Just beautiful. I love your pink clouds. Like cotton candy, to re-use a well-used phrase.
