December Sunrises Over Marshy Creek

From my third floor balcony, I am lucky to see vast sunrises across Marshy Creek and vast sunsets across the south-end of the Kent Narrows Channel and Kent Island.
Clouds in winter months provide the most dramatic and breathtaking during our cold temps and low humidity, and the sun’s shift in the sky gives me the opportunity to capture them without a structure in the foreground. The reflections they create practically blow me away….
If you like sunrises, here’s six captures of mine from last month…..we had, unfortunately, many days of overcast, rain, and fog. And, most important, you gotta be up in time to see them! I’m working on that….
You will see our community Osprey nest platform in the right bottom corner that I photograph birds perched on my blog. 🙂
The next sunrise deserved to have two photos….
Three minutes later…..
Celebrate the sunrise
Toast the sunset
And
Enjoy everything in between!

What a gorgeous view you have.
I am very thankful for my view….. 🙂
These are stunning! The third from the bottom is my favorite but I do love skies and water and these are really majestic, Donna!
Thanks Laura! For those 20-30 mins of ever-changing skies, I get mesmerized to say the least. 🙂
Stunningly beautiful! An understatement! 🙂
One of God’s work of art with nature! 🙂
What beautiful sunsets you have there, and what a place to live, where you can look from your balcony to see them!
Thanks Jerry! I am very thankful for our views and the birds that fly on by me at my level! 🙂
(p.s. these were sunrises, next post is sunsets! 🙂
They are all so beautiful dear Donna, fascinated me. Great shots. Thank you, love, nia
Thank you very much, Nia!
So peaceful!
Very much so! Add the sounds of the awakening waterfowl makes it even better! 🙂
Ah, sun….I remember what that looks like. Delightful compositions.
Thank you, Tom, wish I could send some sunshine your way to help with the deluge of rain and floods you’ve had recently.
We could do with it.
What a spectacular view you have! Perfect for sunrises! These are gorgeous!
Thanks Terry, we love it. Wouldn’t it be nice to see some of your mountains at my horizon?!! 🙂
Brilliant – stunning images!
Thank you very much and for stopping by! 🙂
