Witness Early
Up, earlier than sunrise, traveling, from High Level to Fort Vermilion … early, early morning to witness all that comprises sunrise – the Peace River looking east from Fort Vermilion at the newly risen sun, a beaver marking territory, a Buttertown homestead and cattails coloured in spring splendor.
Listening to – Robbie Robertson’s ‘Sweet Fire of Love,’ Lucinda William’s ‘Concrete and Barbed Wire,’ Melissa McClelland’s ‘Brake,’ Bryan Ferry’s ‘Just Like Tom Thumb’s Blues’ and Ryan Adams’ ‘Hotel Chelsea Nights.’

My favourite at the top. These are inspirational…
Hello, hello …
I agree, the first image has most of spring’s colouring … and they are cattails … a growing theme.
Good schtuff. 😉
I like the sunrise a lot, but am fascinated by the linear lines in the homestead. Very good, with beautiful colours.

Hey there, Jim …
The homestead is one that I’m coming back to time and time again throughout the year – age and former time attract; more recent shots have to do with the homestead within setting. Lines of the homestead seem to give it strength and are at contrast with the surroundings of lake, field/pasture and trees/foliage.
I’m liking the sunrise shot, too, and am likely to explore water shots.
Take care … 😉
I was going to comment about the light in the first photo and then got completely distracted by the beaver! 🙂 enjoyed this post!
Hey there, LB …
A totally interesting morning for photos … landscape, then owner of the landscape (the beaver) … lots of fun.
Enjoy your day! 😉
