Have you ever waited for the sun? I mean what is there to wait for? He will rise in his blazing chariot at the appointed hour and then spread the light of universal life. After a hard day’s work, he will ride into the sunset, to do this all over again, tomorrow and the eternal days after that, right? True that, but I still decided to check on him to see if he was doing a swell job.
They say it is the darkest hour before sunrise. And you know what? Sunrise is a one long soul purifying process. Enjoy the captures, all between 6.20 am to 7.15 am, in South Goa. I couldn’t have had a more apt post as the first of 2013.

So it is pitch dark @ 6.20 am, the darkest hour! |
 |
Slowly the dark night gives way to warmer hues |
 |
The lone star (tiny white dot) will soon fade away…….. |
 |
The landscape seems to stir from the slumber |
 |
The skies dab on a rose blush |
 |
And just like that, someone peeps from the yonder |
 |
Makes his presence known, slowly but surely! |
 |
A confident stride now! |
 |
Time to wakey, wakey , people! |
 |
Rise and Shine……………to yet another day! |
 |
And it is business as usual 🙂 |

Absolutely wow pictures! Now to ask what you were doing up so early?:)
I wanted to catch these pics Corinne. And right enough…..I got them. Was quite enthralling.
Nice pictures..you remained me about myself getting up early to capture those shots in early morning.
I loved the way you showed various shades one use to see at sun rise time
Honestly, I did nothing….I simply clicked. It is all nature. None of the pics are edited. They are as is!
Good morning Aditya.
Ravi says thank you 😀

Even better in person Janu 🙂

I really love them all….and more so because they are etched in my memory…..forever!
Lovely pictures.All cool & refreshing.

Wah, wah….not only for the pictures but also for the person who was up so early for the sake of her art! 😀
Well I have got zillions with the setting sun….but none with the rising……..so was about time 🙂
Psst…there was also a cute Italian next door 😛

Hi BG,
Oh my God! I saw the ninth pic and it is a perfect pic. You got everything right in that one, it looks superb. How did you manage to click that, that too at such unearthly hours?
Great pictures and a lovely post. 🙂

Jay, I guess the cannon zoom works well…..If you see the pics, it is the roof of the building right in the front. I got simply lucky. Besides, solitude can get a great deal done with simplicity.
Indeed, you even got the timing of the bird right.
Which lens did you use?
P.S. Do check out my entry for Get Published.

Jay, I used a Cannon Powershot SX260 HS.
Ahhh, I see. That camera has got some power under its hood. I’ve heard good reviews about it as well. Seems like you made the right choice. 🙂

Not technically Megha, I am a Bombayite that runs to Goa when she gets the chance 😛
Ok, I know I am late here, but what patience you have shown to take multiple shots of the sunrise! Great work!
Prateek, it was so serene………I could not help my self. How refreshing solitude can be!
