I am linking up with Skywatch Friday
These are some shots of the sunrise from our visit to Atlantic City last Sunday. I thought the colors were beautiful and I enjoyed watching the gulls flying over and seeing a few Common Loons in the ocean. It was a very peaceful morning and we practically had the beach to ourselves.
The least movement is of importance to all nature. The entire ocean is affected by a pebble.

A pretty Crescent moon and pinkish contrail.

One of my main reasons for the weekend in New Jersey was to do some birding at the Edwin Forsythe NWR. I will be doing another post on the birds and ducks we saw at the refuge.
But for now the only birds I saw while on the beach were a lots of gulls and a few common loons seen in the orange ocean. They are quick, diving into the water and coming up in totally different area.

Exquisite skyscapes Eileen.
until I read about Contrails in your posts, I always thought they were jet planes smoke.
With this knowledge, I tested my very educated engineering and professor husband, what it that, jet plane smoke.
Wrong, it is contrail. I felt for once very clever. Thanks.
Absolutely beautiful photographs! I love all of them, but the crescent moon was amazing!
Your sky shots are gorgeous, Eileen. I love the soft colors you captured so well.
Thanks for the memories of long ago and far away. Its been many moon since I've been back to AC.
cheers :)
WOW WOW WOW - these are spectacular!
Beautiful sunset Eileen! Looking at your photos reminds me of all the sunrises and sunsets we watched while living in San Diego, Ca.... I miss the beach!
The sunrise pictures are beautiful; however, my favorite is the crescent moon.

Stunning skies! and love the quotes to illustrate them. Colorful and rich--thanks for sharing!
Gorgeous skies, Eileen! And I love the crescent moon. Ono's quote says so much in a small sentence.
I did enjoy your sunset and orange sea with a floating bird. I love the fence line or pier going into the water makes the shot.
I LOVED your skies Eileen! And now I know where the Forsythe refuge is. I wish we'd gone there instead of to Atlantic City. Next time!
Definitely gorgeous!
I'm amazed, Eileen

I truly enjoyed the views, the colors, and the crescent moon. I feel the tranquility and peace, just sitting and watching the sun goes to sleep.
Have a great weekend Eileen!
Amazing views of the sky. Love it.
Stunning! I love all the photos.
Very nice photo set. The wave in the foreground of the first capture really adds interest to that composition. Well done.
These pics are beautiful, I love the all the different colors. I've got some major early morning beach walking envy going on.
These are stunningly beautiful skies and although the bird life was minimal I hope the colourful start and end to the day nearly made up for it! :)
What stunning captures of color and light blazing across the skies.
WoWoWeee! These are beautiful, Eileen! It's amazing how everything turns the color of the sunset, isn't it!
