A red sunrise from the smallholding

This week I feature another set of photographs showing the dawn from our smallholding showing the view over the Cambrian Mountains. It is not often we get a dawn like this with a rich red sun underlighting the light cloud cover. But when we do, the show is fantastic.

The first photo above shows the reds and yellows of the clouds with a small reflection in the ornamental pond in the garden (the white thing on the right is the dovecot). The second image below is a wide format shot concentrating more on the wonderful colours in the clouds - they really were that stunning!



This third photograph concentrates just on the clouds, showing the intricate patterns reflecting the red sunlight. I could look at these for hours...




These photographs were all hand-held, supporting the camera on a window frame.
