Last week, the world was bathed in light, with the sense of new beginnings and possibilities.
And I couldn’t help thinking of Cat Stevens singing:
Morning has broken like the first morning.
Blackbird has spoken like the first bird.
Mine is the sunlight, mine is the morning.
The feather touch of frost, the misty dawn, those glorious colours found an echo, a song in my soaring spirit.
For more wonderful sights, please visit: Skywatch.
The photos look much better enlarged – just click them!
My goodness, this is the most exquisite morning sky I have ever seen. Look at all those pastel shades of pink, blue, green and yellow that differ so much from the deep red and orange during sunsets. And the mist adds a sense of enchantment…
This is a magical moment captured by a lens, if there ever was one. Stunning and breath taking indeed…

Forgot to tell you: that the dog is swimming in the water, thus creating the ripples.
