Just arrived at the airport, about to catch an early flight to get away for a few days.

The bench on the left is where I asked my wife to marry me seven years ago today. It’s also the spot I chose to photograph on January 1st of this year to be the first sunrise photo for this project. This is a place of new beginnings. It’s my favorite spot in town.

Today I witnessed one of the most incredible sunrises I’ve ever seen. It started out with dark clouds near the horizon, similar to this past Saturday, so I wasn’t sure if much was going to happen. But today there was a slight haze in the air which I guess helped to illuminate the sky, and you can see the result here.
I hope someone out there finds some kind of inspiration in what I’m doing….to make changes in your daily routine or your life in general, or to do something a little different. Trust me, moments like this make it all worth it.

Feathers of clouds lit up in pink and orange as the sun came up on this otherwise clear morning. It’s the second day of summer and it’s already starting out much nicer than the first day of summer started out yesterday.

The Summer Solstice. It’s the longest day of the year (by about two seconds) and the first day of summer. But it’s actually not the earliest sunrise of the year…that happened exactly one week ago on June 14th. The sun has been rising a few seconds later each morning since that day, and the distance between sunrise times will be increasing each day for the next several months.
It’s also my first Father’s Day since becoming a dad over nine months ago, so Happy Father’s Day to all the other dads out there. It was a rainy morning. Not quite what I had I mind for today, but that’s ok…part of being a dad is learning to just roll with the things that happen.
