sunrise from home
October 23, 2014
It's been a while since we've had a stop-in-your-tracks-and-stare kind of sunrise like this. I believe the intense color was helped along by the particulate matter in the air that was left over from huge fire they had in Gilroy yesterday morning. I could see the smoke plume from across the Monterey Bay. Thankfully, it wasn't a wildfire. Late October is the time of year I consider the start of sunrise season. Is there a season for sunrises? Sure. Why not? Of course, sunrises happen every day, but to get color, amazing color and contrast and clouds, autumn, winter, and spring skies are the ticket in our Mediterranean climate. Around here, it goes all the way through to April (if my blog's sunrise pics speak to any pattern). Sigh. I can hardly wait for the rain.
ps 10/25/14 - It rained this Saturday morning. Yay! The last time it rained was exactly one month ago on 09/25/14, also in the morning.
