Marnie, you really have an eye for good pictures. It takes a talented person to be able to see what will be a stunning photo. Thanks for a beautiful sunrise.

Randy said...

Marnie,
Your photos are incredible! And, thanks for all the tips. :-) I especially like the Railroad Bridge. I'm not even going to comment on the Skywatch photo... I can find no words to describe such beauty.- Randy

Thanks everyone for your very kind comments. The silhouette on the right is a weeping willow tree. I should have mentioned that to give the photo some perspective.
Thanks again, Marnie

Rose said...

Beautiful photo, Marnie! The framing adds such a special effect. One of these days--when my computer is fixed!--I'm going to have a free evening when I can sit down and play with these programs. Please don't delete any of your posts!:)

I would love the photo, in that frame hanging on my wall. Beautiful!

How beautiful Marnie. I'm never up early enough to catch a sunrise! Sunsets are a different story. :-)

Roses and Lilacs said...

Again, thank you all for the compliments. I drive into the rising sun every morning on my way to work. Every sunrise is different, some more spectacular than others--some barely noticeable obscured by heavy weather.

Yes that is a weeping willow, very graceful in silhouette.
