Chesapeake skywatch

I took these shots last Friday early in the morning on my way to the Blackwater NWR. The sun was already up and I think the clouds and light were pretty.


                                      My sunrise reflection.



To see more wonderful skies from all over the world go and visit Skywatch Friday

and thanks to the hosting team of skywatch Friday.

also I think my first shot looks great for Weekend reflections the sun is reflecting nicely on the icy pond.

  5. First I have to say one thing, you need to remove that part in your profile that says you have to admit you're not the best photographer! That simply is not true, these shots are amazing and it takes someone with a good eye to capture the scene so well. Bravo!
