Sky mountains on fire.

In many ways I know that I am lucky, inasmuch I can see the sun coming up above the horizon in the east from my bed. Most of the time here in the NW of England I only see the greyness of rain-laden clouds but on this morning I was greeted by this wonderful sunrise. The pointed cloud changed in moments from a mountain to a castle amongst a mountain range sat on a molten lava bed.

Best full screen.

Enjoy the day

Herb Riddle replied to Anton Cruz Carro:

Thanks Anton. No I did not take this from my bed but from my bedroom window, for sure and then I jumped back into bed (˚◡˚)

Sunrises like this usually heralds rain here but the weather was fine all day. Glad you liked it.

Regards. Herb

Dachte schon, das du draußen schlafen musst ;-))!
Wunderschöner Anblick am Morgen, ähnlich habe ich es gestern abend bei uns zum Sonnenuntergang gesehen.
Das entschuldigt das Grau der letzten Tage.
Sonniges Wochenende Herb!

Herb Riddle replied to uwschu:

Haha, yes Uwe I can imagine a bed outside on the grass. Our east facing bedroom has the two advantages of seeing any nice sunrises and being cool in the summer but also the disadvantage of not getting the warmth of the sun when needed. Glad you saw the same kind of light in Germany.

Best Wishes. Herb
