Sunrise...

I guess we all like to watch the sunrise... If we can wake up early enough ;) The picture of the sun slowly rising up is magic and mesmerizing The most important thing is choosing the right morning to enjoy this moment, right? So I looked at the forecast and when I saw they predicted a foggy morning I decided this would be a perfect opportunity for me... So I drove to the foothills and at 6:30AM was walking up to the Dinosaur ridge to meet the sun...

 

Honestly... the forecast wasn't that accurate, the morning was foggy, but not as foggy as I expected ;) Never mind, the sunrise is still the time when the colors are just amazing. Like this view to the Red Rocks Amphitheater, when the sun was so low and the colors were unbelievably pink-ish and absolutely unreal...

Once I climbed to the summit, I was able to see the sun slowly rising above the cloud level and also flooding everything with the colors you can see only in the early morning and not for long. Usually you have something between 10 and 20 minutes before the sun is high enough and the colors turn to the normal...

So I invite you to climb with me on the ridge and walk along the edge looking to the East and to the West to see the different views and... different colors ;)
