Friday's Sunrise

I left the house shortly before 6:30 AM and could see the sky to the east painted in deep reds and shadows with the sunrise illuminating the morning clouds.

I hurried over with Brigitta to The Plains Conservation Center on Quincy Road, hoping to catch these red skies.

Alas, I was too late. Still, I got a couple of shots that with a little retouching thanks to picnik.com, come close to showing you the really nice colors that followed that awesome red painted sky that I missed. At this rate, I'm going to have to leave the house in the dark in order to be able to capture those first rays of light!

The morning clouds to the east blocked the sun from painting the tops of the Rockies

I'll keep trying, maybe I'll be more fortunate next week.

Hope you all had chances to ride this week!
