Second sunrise…

Thursday was my last day at Fort DeSoto, and even though I’d enjoyed an amazing sunrise there on Tuesday I headed there again.  Or maybe it was because that sunrise had been so pretty that I hoped I’d see another one as nice, or maybe even better.  And when I arrived I was excited to see the bridge lit in red this time, but the low fog was rolling in and in minutes it washed out the bridge and the whole sky was more gray than anything else.  The feature photo was taken at 6:28 AM.  Ten minutes later we had this…0.jpeg

And at 6:490-3.jpeg

At 7:08…0-4.jpeg

And at 7:12…0-2.jpeg

These are all iPhone photos, pretty much straight out of the camera.  I wanted to see as much of that sky as I could because the entire sky looked like this as far as I could see.  I never did see the sun at all that morning, and I could barely see the bridge as the sunrise progressed and that fog took over.  It wasn’t the sunrise I’d hoped for, but I have to say that that sky was incredible.  I think Forrest Gump was onto something.  Sunrises are also like a box of chocolates, you never know what you are going to get.
