The Edge of Summer

I found this Trumpet Vine growing wild along the creek last week – I decided to try a low profile silhouette at sunrise with this to accentuate the details of the vine with the orange morning sky - a Caffè Breve with 2 raw sugars paired nicely with this sunrise!

  Both photos are lovely, Jeff. I like how the graceful vine is almost touching the morning sun.

  My eyes are a little impaired, but from the thumbnail, I thought this was Santa and his reindeer team!

Very pretty catch, Jeff.

  Technicals (as always) spot-on and presentation just beautiful, Jeff. Amazing sunrise colors - your location in Big D with the wonderful creek behind your house presents so many photo opps - and you sure know how to take advantage of them...in style - caffe breve, no less! :) :)

  I enjoy how you take these sun rises and sun sets to be an important part of your day and to wait for it with a cup of joe. That setting things up, knowing what you want to achieve, the the perfect time comes and your so ready. As a result you bring us some of the most splendid and beautiful pictures as you have done here. The colors, that glow, the way you have the vine coming across and down with the sun in the perfect spot. Your other picture with the plane is just as beautiful. Stunning, well developed, beauties my friend.

  Jeff I wish I could get up as early as you, I think I am just too old or still having to work too hard. Both amazing captures of our great Texas sky. Love the silhouette of the trumpet vine. Enjoy the Cafee Breve.
