A beautiful Orange Sunrise

[grandpawrichard]

I woke up this morning to a bedroom that was extremely Orange. I got up and looked out the window to see where the fire was in the neighborhood. I couldn't believe my eyes when I looked towards the east. The sun was The Most Red Orange Color I have ever seen.

It took me a few minutes to throw on some clothes, shoes and socks, grab my camera and then go out to take some photos. By the time I got outside the sun wasn't the absolute red orange it had been, but it was still mighty pretty.

I have attached some photos I took so that you can somewhat see the sky and sun color.

The pics are beautiful Dick! Is there smoke in the area from a wildfire? Sometimes we get sunrises and sunsets like this when we get smoke from a wildfire somewhere, but then again we get them sometimes just because mother nature wants to amaze us

Cindy,
As far as I can tell by listening to the Radio and TV there are no fires here. That's the first thing I thought of too!

It is a bit hazy here from polution, he have had a record dry spell and record high temps. I'm loving every minute of it!

Dick,

Well at least there is no fire! We live 200 miles from any major cities so no polution here. We were having a dry spell and was getting smoke in from neighboring states and their wildfires, had a few wildfires around here but nothing serious. Now we are having our mountain monsoons and I am loving it! I dont mind the rain and at least when we go camping we can still build a campfire as no fire bans on.

Hope you are having a great weekend! Enjoy some of that warm dry weather for me

Cindy
