Kelly Anne...

By Greyheron
Sleep wasn't a friend last night, so 03:30hrs saw me up and on my way to the Shoebury foreshore...it was never going to be a colourful sunrise. I was hoping for two things from the visit:

1. Illumination from the urban lighting adding colour to the low clouds, which it has done beautifully here Smile
2. Some contrasty black and white images a little later on - I was lucky enough to get a couple of frames that I liked...

I was home by 07:15 for breakfast...

My thanks go to the many generous souls who saw fit to bestow their valued User Awards on my previous image - very much appreciated Smile

Mike

A more gentle mood here to go with the resting boat. Too brilliant a sunrise would overshadow the boat.

Far too early in the day for me! But a lovely capture here, great reflection, and the curving of the chain leads the eye in very nicely to the boat Smile

Hope your sleep patterns are back to normal now, Ju, and you are fully recovered from that operation - I did catch up eventually, thanks...!!!
