Quiet Morning Winter deep sapphire and softer shades

deep sapphire and softer shades of blue

just enough to remind you how good it feels to slow down

and a sky filled with color like this is rare

The form revealed itself

The color of the water was perfect

Quiet Morning Winter deep sapphire and softer shadesOpen Edition Location East Lyme, CT Story The sunrise over the lake was perfect on my morning bike ride. I passed this lake each morning, and always looked to see if it was worthy of getting my camera out of my bag, but most mornings didn't quite cut it. This was the loveliest sunrise of the summer over the lake that summer. The quiet, the color, the soft sounds of the birds waking up at first light.
