Sunrise over the Water

I couldn't resist sharing this great photo of a sunrise. I know there have been many beautiful photos of sunrises and sunsets but they just keep happening don't they? Sunrises over water seem particularly lovely. This one was taken in a town called Denmark in Western Australia. My husband took the photo and I have permission to use it. Vince isn't too keen on leaving a nice warm bed early in the morning especially when I refuse to go with him but I think he felt better once he realised what spectacular photos were possible.

If you remember your discussion on what kinds of photos do you like, this is one of those photos - it has sunrise, mountains, sea or lake, peace and calmness

It's a bit special, isn't it? Maybe I'll have to encourage Vince to enter it somewhere.

Yes I have to admit I am more inclined to take great sunsets rather than great sunrises!! Just a sleepy head I guess. lol

Despite his reluctance to get out of bed, Vince was pretty pleased with this shot.

Vince went for a walk one morning and it was about 6.30am when he took the photo.

@rebelann It was a one-off rising for Vince - One-off for that week anyway.

That is so beautiful. Its funny because I took a picture of the sunrise yesterday, and today I haven't seen the sun come up, its just too cloudy.

@JudyEv I planned on putting the picture up today, but I don't know how to download the pictures from our digital camera to the computer, I rely on my hubby for that, and he's working right now and I'll have to try to remember to ask him this evening.

@Juliaacv Pay close attention to how he does it and you might be able to do it yourself next time.

There is plenty of stuff I still have to get help with.

Are you going to put up your photo of a sunrise? Sometimes the clouds spoil a shot don't they?

The more sunrise and sunset photos the better, each one is different. This is beautiful.

@judyev It's incredible to think that these beautiful things have been happening on a daily basis since there was a sun to shine and water to shine on. Moreover they never end because there's always somewhere in the world where the sun's rising or setting. Wow!!

It's all a bit awe-inspiring, isn't it, in the best sense of the word. And the waves continue to roll in and roll out. People are very insignificant really despite what some of us think. :)

Surprise to learn that there is a place called Denmark in Australia. I wonder if there is a town named as Australia in Denmark. This photo is very nice, very serene and calming. Personally I do not wake up early enough for sun rise.

Vince doesn't wake up early enough to see too many sunrises either. :) I don't think there is town called Australia in Denmark. We have lots of British names in particular but Denmark was named after a man not the country.
