My son and I went for an early morning walk to watch the sunrise.
Here are some pictures to share. I hope you like them.
(Thank you to Woodrow for lending me some space on his Photobucket account!)
This is our local river:
This is the same river from a different perspective. It is running quite high at the moment:
I love this 'purple tree':
The next two pictures show how quickly the light changed in a matter of 10-15 minutes:
This one is my favourite. My son took it whilst leaning precariously over the railings of the old Grand Union Canal aquaduct :scared::
Peace glo
Here I stand.
I can do no other.
May God help me.
Amen.

thank you!
yes the purple tree is beautiful - i have never seen the sky that colour. maybe it is because you are so far north?
dawn and sunset go pretty fast in southern california.
each man thinks of his own fleas as gazelles
question authority
I see you live in London.
This time of year the sun doesn't rise until 8-ish ... so you don't have to get up very early to see it rise!
In six months time it will be a different matter!
I would have thought that Muslims have every opportunity to see the sun rise, given that they wake up for Fajr before sunrise ...
8 is considered....not early...?...wow...its so wierd knowing how many people are already awake at that time...when i wake up at 8 i just say..hmm i still got a lot of time to sleep...lol...
^^ lol... how is it actually possible for some people to ACTAULLY wake up early...PLUS go outside early....so amazing...do u sleep early too? if not...than thats amazinger..(thats not a word is it...)
Right then, before I log off, here's the challenge:
I want to see some pictures tomorrow, taken by you at the crack of dawn!! Come on, you sleepy-heads ... you can do it!
Between Fajr and going back to bed, just take a picture of the view from your window!!
Remember to go to bed early though. For those of you in the UK, that means NOW!
Peace
