Water Valley dawn

On a trip to Water Valley a couple of weeks ago, I raced to find something interesting for the sun to silhouette as it rose above the prairies. These trees, still weeks away from any leaves emerging fit the bill very nicely. It was one of the prettiest mornings I’ve enjoyed in quite a while.
My favourite version was the wider view with the deep blue of the sky above in it. However, the tighter shot with the sun just above the trees and a color palette of gold, copper and bronze was a close second.

Autumn Sunrise
A really spectacular sunrise pulled me off the road on the way into Calgary this morning.
These photographs were made east of Bragg Creek along Highway 8 in Springbank, Alberta.
