watch the sunrise

I spent last Thanksgiving at my brother’s vacation house in northern Wisconsin, and due to a shortage of bedrooms, I slept on the couch in their living room. Fortunately, my dad got up to use the bathroom right as the sun was beginning to rise, so I grabbed my camera and went outside into a frigid northwoods morning and snapped a few photos. The only thing I would like to do differently in the future is watch the sun rise in warmer weather, so I don’t feel like I have to run inside immediately. Still, it made for a really peaceful start to my day.

I think watching the sun rise can be so moving, especially when it’s quiet and warm out and you can hear the air in the trees…

I can see the sun set every night from my balcony, which is pretty spectacular itself.
