Carrollton Sunrises/Sunsets

There were two sunsets I captured before Christmas when I was in Carrollton TX. The first is from my parents’ house….framed by neighborhood trees. The second is from a hotel parking lot on another evening; on a hill, and a lot more clouds to reflect the light…a very different sunset with very intense color.

After Christmas, I was up early enough to photograph the sunrise from my parents’ house on two mornings. I got almost the same view. Clouds made a big difference.

My favorite sunrise picture was on the same day as the second picture above – but includes tree silhouettes. I like the colorful backlight.

Sunrise is my favorite time of day…full of hope for the new day…celebrating the joy of being a morning person.
