Looking southerly over farmers' fields at sunrise

A subtle blush of clouds over snowy fields was a gentle way to start the day.

    It's a lovely, calm landscape photo but the landscape strikes me as being so lonely! And cold!!

    That is a wonderful shot. The farm at the horizon line, the lone tree in the foreground and the warm but not overpowering sky. Nice.

    Why are you getting up so early these days? Too cold to sleep?

    Keep it up, though, 'cause you sure get some gorgeous early morning shots!
