I love the way Mother Nature gets bored, changing the way everything looks from one moment to the next. Her pastel palette in the morning is soothing on the eyes. Mornings on a clear day take on the colors of newborn pink and blues – a fresh start to a new day. Purple reflections in the clouds cover the lake, quilting the people below in a foggy shroud for a few more hours. They have no idea how beautiful the sky is above .

I sit at 1500 feet taking my photos greeting the new day. I am in awe of the way Mother Nature continues to welcome the morning. Mornings on the mountain can be so tranquil yet so alive.
