DRAMATIC DAYBREAK, ARBOR DAY 2009

As I promised in this morning's blog (below), here's my photo of the eastern morning sky this Arbor Day at 6:15 a.m., April 24, 2009, from my front porch.
Despite the driving rain, the "sky-fire" spectacle was clearly seen, even through the lens of my rather ordinary camera. This photo has not been enhanced in any way. It was the only photo my camera would allow before the battery died. Too bad. The next photo I was trying to take would have shown the rain-wet highway reflecting the color and looking like a river of fire. (Sometimes waking up a bit too early in the day is worth the effort).... R.A.T. (Rose About Town)
