“The body is a great reservoir of wisdom. Something as simple as bodily stillness and breathing make a contribution of untold value to discovering the unfathomable silence deep within us.”
Martin Laird
A light rain fell during the night leaving the air soaked in moisture. I found it very invigorating to me when I stepped out the door and ventured into the new day. I witnessed the gift of sunrise at Pineridge Natural Area. As I looked east the foothills behind me had a dusting of light snow while low hanging clouds blanketed their peaks. But the warm colors of the rising sun and the golden glow on the rabbitbrush was where my photographer’s eye focused. I love the silence, the stillness of early mornings. Spring is quickly coming and change is inevitable. Hoping you have a wonderful day!

Thanks, Earl. I loved the colors also.

It does look peaceful! I am not familiar with rabbitbush, I imagine named for where they hide?
Monte Stevens
Yes, the rabbitbrush is their hiding place. Interestingly they do not eat it. Preferring grass and leaves.

Beautiful image, Monte. I’ve been going through some of the past posts I’ve missed and they are all excellent. Somewhere along the line, I stopped receiving emails of new posts and I can’t find the subscribe button. Can you hook me up? Thanks.
Monte Stevens
Thanks, Ken. I removed the plugin for subscriptions as I was having issues with it and too lazy to figure out the problem. So, I just decided anyone who wants to know what’s going on in my little world can just drop by whenever they choose rather than getting an email. I just may need to go look at that now. Glad you dropped by, my friend!
