Sunrise, Sunrise.



Despite the chilly temperature, this morning's sunrise was a breathtaking sight to behold. As I gazed out, I was fortunate enough to witness a family of dolphins gracefully passing by, it was a truly stunning experience. These tranquil moments of solitude before the hustle and bustle of the day leave me feeling immensely grateful. The spiritual significance of watching the sunrise is something I hold dear.

    I have seen nice Sunsets and Sunrises, But never a dolphin up close or even in telephoto distance.
It was quite a sight, Double D.

    Magnificent photo. Dolphins are such fun. Loved watching them on the Indian River on visits to the Florida coast.

    Hope you're doing well.

    "Morning has broken like the first morning
    Blackbird has spoken like the first bird
    Praise for the singing, praise for the morning
    Praise for them springing fresh from the world

    Sweet the rains new fall, sunlit from Heaven
    Like the first dewfall on the first grass
    Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden
    Sprung in completeness where His feet pass

    Mine is the sunlight, mine is the morning
    Born of the one light, Eden saw play
    Praise with elation, praise every morning
    God's recreation of the new day

    Morning has broken like the first morning
    Blackbird has spoken like the first bird
    Praise for the singing, praise for the morning
    Praise for them springing fresh from the world..." Cat Stevens (aka Yusuf Islam) from October 1971 album "Teaser and the Firecat", "Morning Has Broken"
    I think of this song EVERY time I witness the sunrise in person where ever I might be. Your photo today captured the essence of his song and immediately came to mind! Thank you for sharing, it's a GORGEOUS photo, 'alj'...
Great Tune, you're welcome.

    I hope you find something that catches your eye today.

    Those gorgeous legs walking through the leaves always catches my eye.

    As do those legs in ExNameforuse's blogs....

    Perhaps we're leg men?

    An understatement......
Perhaps. Thank you, though.
