Morning bus ride

Morning sunrise on the bus

I took this image on the bus ride the other morning. The sunrise was a pretty red and pink so I shot towards the east and included one of the riders. I like how it came out as it made it an abstract image. We have been cold ever since the Thanksgiving snowstorm that left us with 15 inches of snow. We’ve had a couple of days reach above 50 degrees but most days hoover around 40 degrees. Due to the cold and the amount of snow it is taking time to melt the snow, which is not the norm for Colorado. There are still piles of plowed snow along the campus that are still 6 feet tall. I confess I’m looking forward to warmer weather.

Retired. Having fun with photography. Journal daily. Meditate daily. Learning haiku/poetry. Have a love for fountain pens.

    I love how this looks like you are actually outside the bus looking in.

    We’ve had our own weird weather here the last few weeks. We’ve been close to 70 every day lately, dropping only into the 60s at night. We’ve run the air conditioning the last few nights because the house has been stuffy. I’m not complaining (or bragging!) but would rather have that than snow and cold!

    We head for Florida next week and are hoping things cool down here while we’re gone so we won’t be wasting our money! 😉

    This photo has me confused. I like it!
    If not for your explanation I would have put this down to a double exposure, but knowing how you did this, I am mesmerised all the more.

    Being always a detail type of guy…I thought it looked like you were shooting the reflection of the passenger and sunrise in your window (to your right) which included the reflections from the far side windows? Very neat effect! 🙂

    Love this shot, the colors are fab and including the passenger was perfect. With the poles/posts, it has a triptych feel. Well done!
