Sunrise in Osa

Morning in the Osa Peninsula of Costa Rica

I missed an amazing sunset photo the other night. That's what happens when you don't bring your camera folks! And I didn't have to travel to Costa Rica to see/miss it. It was in my own backyard. Or close to it. At lake Harriet. Lately, when the sun grazes the tree line, it is a glowing pink fireball. Due to the smoky skies over our heads. 

I took this smoky sunset photo earlier this summer. Surreal!



You can call me a lot of things. But don't call me late for sunrise. Because I never am. Not when the fireworks are right outside my room. And it doesn't hurt that at Iguana Lodge, great coffee and  tasty food await the early riser. Plus, if you saw last week's post, that's when you see and hear the most bird action. Who could sleep through that? Well, a lot of people. But not me. 






Morning is the best time of day!

Happy Labor day blogging friends!

These are fabulous images of the sunrise.Looks like I will be up early in Costa Rica but that should not be a problem for me.

Yes, I'd be right there with you, Sharon. I miss a lot of sunsets, though. Happy End of Summer holiday to you, too! :-)

Gorgeous! I'm usually more of a sunset kind of person, but this makes me consider waking up earlier :)

Oh my gosh those are the most beautiful sunrise pictures Sharon! Stunning. You are so right about morning being the best time. And also right about some people being able to sleep right through the beauty and birdsong (I'm looking at you, person sitting at the other computer in this room !!)
