Reassuring sunrise


There have been days, these last couple of months, when the skies have been so dull and gloomy that one's wondered whether the sun in fact forgot to rise at all.

But I'm pleased to report we've also had mornings here in Aberdeen when a fiery technicolour backdrop has lit up my early romp around Duthie Park - a welcome reminder of how even in the heart of this grey and austere northern city, midwinter can be a time of transforming beauty.


Happy Nature Friday friends! And thanks once again to our ever wonderful blog hop hosts Arty, Jakey and Rosy.

  7. Those are beautiful sunrise pictures Bertie. We rarely see the sun around here too due to lake effect snow.

  8. Those are really beautiful pictures Bertie, and the first one is surely a prize-winner.
    It's forecast that we are going to have snow soon, but I can't see my human going out to take any photos. We'll both be huddled by the fire!

  9. Gorgeous...except the one that looks like a bushfire. But, isn't it red sky in morning, shepherds (sailors) take warning?
