Sky Watch - Sunrise

"...the Sun rose, a Ribbon at a time" ~ Emily Dickinson



http://skyley.blogspot.com Many thanks to Dot, whose idea it was in the first place, Tom, Klaus and the SWF team for this wonderful exchange and opportunity to share with others from around the world.

Today my thoughts are also with the people of North Dakota and Manitoba who are currently experiencing or facing flooding from ice jams and the surging Red River.

Your images carry a feeling of serenity for me.
Yes there is lots of challenge at this time-flood, storms drought, sad and frightening for many.

Love the photographs and the Emily Dickinson quote. Dickinson's home is practically in my back yard in Amherst, Massachusetts.

Nicely done!
