Watching the sun come up over the runway at V.C Bird International Airport

As I sat beside the runway this morning waiting for our aircraft to arrive from Ascension I was blessed with another glorious sunrise!
I love how the sunlight reflects off the higher clouds to bring the vibrant colors to other parts of the sky, yet leaving enough blue available to make a beautiful contrast. Amazing!
Just prior to sunrise we had a nice rainfall. You can see the wetness of the pavement as it mirrors the colors of the sun from its surface. It added so much to the scene. Thank you Mother Nature for making my early morning so welcoming with another colorful display!

Another Magnificent Sunset!

Here's just another reason I enjoy being here!

Colors Of Nature

This tiny yellow flower casting its shadow on the dark green leaves below was captured by Justin during one of our recent hikes.
A tiny sculpted lavender flower adorns these delicate green vines. Regrettably the leaves on those vines leave you with a painful sting when touched. Yes, that is the voice of experience talking from several hours of stinging skin.
Vibrant orange blossoms cover a tree I am lucky to walk past every day on my way to the office.
Large trumpeting flowers display their rich golden color against a patchwork of cloudy sky.
I cought this shot after a gentle rain had passed. The broad leaves gathered the liquid into small bubbles that eventually evaporated into the tropical air.

Sunrise at Devil's Bridge

The deep colors of sunrise as it appeared over Devil's Bridge this morning (Friday, Nov 23rd 2007).
With a slower shutter speed I was able to catch the waves in a softer form as they crashed against the rock ledges.
Some of the errosion along a rock ledge showing the immense power the movement of water has over time.
Shards of golden sunlight breaking through the morning clouds.
A splash of water coming up from under Devil's Bridge back dropped by the light of the morning sun.

Thanksgiving Day at Half Moon Bay

Some local "art" created on the beach by a few of the local kids.
I found the washed up bottle, but there was no mysterious message inside. :(
The sun was definitely bright and created a very distinct shadow.
I thought this was a neat capture of the seafoam approaching as I walked along the beach.
Ahhh, the serenity of a leaning palm near a sun canopy overlooking the colorful waters of the bay as the clouds float by.

Spending a few hours at the bay was an ideal way to relax and take time out to thank God for all He has blessed me with. Happy Thanksgiving!
