Something I Forgot to Show You, for Skywatch

I forgot to show you this sunrise I saw one morning in March. Its beginning caught my eye through the curtains...


... then the desert sky lit up with fiery colors.


I saw the silvery moon through a pink cloud and was glad that I had awakened in time.


For skies everywhere, at all times of the day and night, please be sure to visit Skywatch Friday.

    Always a good feeling when you get up early enough to catch a wonderful sunrise like this. The lace curtain adds a lovely touch.

    Fantastic colors. I can see why that made you turn your head. And the moon makes it perfect.

    Oh I'm so glad you remembered this series! That sunrise is absolutely quintessential New Mexico. The lace curtain creates a lovely veiled effect.

    Beautiful beautiful NM colors. If only there was more water ;>). (I have I think told you that we would have stayed there but for that!)
