Sunrise Surprise Saturday

Last Monday was predicted to be a rainy day with possible snow showers, so I really wasn’t expecting much in the way of a sunrise that morning.

But, sometimes, we get surprised.

The skies changed soon after I took these pictures.

The clouds took control, and we had rain mixed with snow for much of the day.

Linking up to Weekend Reflections.

  1. Beautiful shots but it looks COLD up in those clouds and I guess it was since you got rain/snow/ice most of the day! Still, it was nice to at least start out with a few rays of sun before the skies opened up…..

  2. Whoa, what a wonderful surprise! Sometimes nature is a funny thing 🙂
    Beautiful photo!

  3. Oh my, the second one is amazing.

  4. Gorgeous sunrise! You just never know with the weather…some mornings when I think there won’t be any color in the sky, I am rewarded with the most magnificent show! These photos are simply beautiful!

  5. Bonjour dear friend,

  6. What a perfect morning. Beautiful.

  7. Glad you were feeling well enough to capture a really surprising and beautiful sunrise!

  8. I love awesome surprises like this. Beautiful! What a way to wake up to the day. It’s a shame the clouds moved in and it rained & snowed! Wow I didn’t know you all got such weather. Bundle up and keep warm. 🙂

  9. These are lovely. I never get tired of the sunrise or the sunset. Moons are good too. And stars. And sunshine.

    I guess I am just very fickle :).

  10. I think the second one is amazing too! Have a wonderful Saturday Dianna!

  11. Wow, those are amazing shots of a beautiful sunrise. What time did you have to get up at to catch that – I think it must have been well early.
    Have a nice weekend!!

  12. but, wow, such pretty tones before the clouds took over!

  13. Another amazing progression … You’d never guess that the second and last pictures here are from the same morning! I know what they say about a red sky at that time, but I’m no sailor – so I can appreciate it 😉

  14. What a pleasant surprise!

  15. Beautiful scenes.

    Regards and best wishes
