Early Morning

 

 

This  morning, cool, calm, and fine, colours from grey to red to blue  showed early in our Eastern Sky.

Very early morning sky

 This morning's sky

The colours almost fading

Quotation of the day, from Molière


“The greater the obstacle, the more glory in overcoming it”

Greetings from Jean

Thanks Tex and Lindsjo, we are doing OK, I'm almost 90%, Hugh about 50% when it is good, and about 10% when BAD, so Doctor on Monday. Our day has gone from one beautiful morning sky to dull grey cloud. Hope all OK with you and yours, Cheers, Jean .

Your quote is spot on today, Jean.

Love your photos as well, always fond of morning colours, especially with the dark grey accenting them.

Sorry to hear you're both still feeling poorly. Rest and enjoy those beautiful sunrises. Mine looked very much the same this morning, but it was raining, so no photograph. Feel better soon.

The blues and reds are beautiful. Get well.

Linda said...

Absolutely gorgeous, Jean! I love the quotation as well.

A beautiful morning. We had a glorious sunrise here today... but it feels hollow with all that has happened to our world.

Your quote is full of meaning for me.

Hi all, lovely comments, as ever so appreciated .Our obstacles are still there, in full force for Hugh, hoping for some miracle on Monday's Dr's visit. The sunset faded to grey, some sun, but even this would be magic to all those flooded out in CO. thoughts go out to all those there. Greetings from Jean

I'm rarely up to see the morning sky. Yours are beautiful, thanks for sharing.

It means I am granted another wonderful day on this wonderful earth.

Beautiful skies you have shared, Nancy.

Keeping you in my good thoughts.
