My fury alarm clock, my cat, woke me up a little earlier than normal this fateful day. It was pre-dawn and yet I could tell this was going to be a fantastic sunrise. It did not disappoint.
Photograph/video taken on 6 February 2018.
Colorful Sunrise
The sky was full of color changes. I paused the video long enough to take this photo.
Original Photo: Canon EOS 7D; f/5.6; 1/30 sec.; ISO-100; 70mm
Sunrise Animated GIF
To give you an idea of what to expect in the longer video this 31 second animated GIF was created at 40 times normal speed.

"Colorful Sunrise" Video
This full length video is 1.26 times normal speed. This was done to match the sunrise with the "1812 Overture" by Tchaikosvky.

When I think about how wonderful it is to capture these moments, I often realize how little I had to do with making these wonderful moments. For I am just the guy behind the camera.

Thank You!
Thank you!
Your photography skills are really very good. I love this sunset view.
perfect, it's a suitable word after viewing the contents of your post. incredible .... like a love story that changes from day to day like gone and looks like the sun.
I usually wake up early just to see this type of view. Never got bored of looking at the sunrise, never will actually. When you get to see the world waking up before you, that moment is worth living for. As you can see in the pic you posted.
I agree. It just seems like the right way to start each day.
Thank you for your support!
Have a great weekend!
Steem on,
Mike
Love a nice sunrise. Left my Nikon SLR at home, but caught this on my Oneplus 3t! Saigon, Vietnam
Wow! Looks like you have a great view!
Have a great weekend!
Steem on,
Mike
Thanks Mike,
Heading back to cold grey and xenophobic Britain tomorrow. But seeing all these great pictures on steemit has inspired me to take my camera out and take some pics around London.
I also have a massive back catalogue of pics from my travels that have never been posted online before. So hopefully I can share some of those with all you lovely steemians.
Have a great weekend

Tu gato sabe el horario perfecto para despertarte, buena alarma.
Lo mejor de todo es el lugar donde vives, tienes una vista privilegiada.
Feliz fin de semana.
Thank you!
Yes, all the credit goes to Almighty God, great architect and director of every sunrise, day, sunset, and night.
Being so far north the view of the sunrise is just right out my backyard windows in the winter time. As spring and summer approach the sunrise is further East each day. Soon it will no longer be possible to photograph it from my camera window.
When it gets warmer I will be able to clean other windows from the outside. This will allow me to capture the sunrises once again as long as the windows are clear (clean).
Have a wonderful weekend!
Steem on,
Mike
Estás es la estación invierno, magnífico mi gran sueño desde niña es conocer la nieve, espero algún día lo pueda cumplir.
En mi país no tenemos esa estación.
Y poder jugar a hacer bolas de nieve, jejejejjee o comer nieve, que loca soy.
Saludos y abrazos desde las distancia.
Not crazy at all. When I lived in southern California one of my coworkers never saw it snow either. In sourthern California, you can see the snow capped mountains in the distance, but you need to go there to enjoy the snow.
One winter my friends took him up to the mountains where it was snowing and took pictures of his reaction. It was exactly as you say, eating snow and making snowballs. It was fun hearing about his experience and seeing the pictures when we were all back at work.
I am certain that one day you will get to experience snow. Just remember to dress for cold weather :-)
It is snowing right now. It is a wet snow mixed with freezing rain. It makes for a slippery mess outside. But not enough snow to make a snowball.
The bird feeders are full and the birds are enjoying that! (I filled them yesterday when there was a break in the weather.)
Have a fantastic day!
While I can't send you a snowball, I can send you a hug from a distance,
Mike
Ohhhh que lindo gesto de tu parte, estoy segura que si conocería la nieve estaría igual que tu amigo.
Recibo ese abrazo muy feliz.
Lastima no hay bolas de nieve, jejejejeje
I just took a glance a on your picture then I thought okay it's just a picture of sunrise from any corner of the world. But the. gif file was a brilliant idea because that's how you show us the whole beauty of the beginning of a day.. You just remind me something
Every sunrise is an invitation to brighten someone's day
Keep doing great jobs. And thanks for sharing such a good thing.
Thank you!
Yes, each sunrise is a start of a new day with a whole new set of possibilities. What you do with it is up to each person. To brightens someone's day is an excellent start!
Have a great weekend!
Steem on,
Mike

https://steemit.com/mylandscape/@alequandro/mylandscape-photographic-challenge-share-your-best-landscape-shot-at-sunset
I would be delighted to enter your contest. However, I have only been photographing and making videos of sunrises. It would not be right to enter a landscape sunrise as a landscape sunset.
Great appreciate the offer and support!
Enjoy the rest of the weekend!
Steem on,
Mike
