Once again...thank you to our sponsors for their efforts to bring us skies from all over the world for our viewing pleasure.

Each morning as I go up on the hill behind our cabin here in the mountains of western NC to greet the day I am reminded of an old Navajo Chant, and the photo's below are a prime example of that...the Quote follows...
"Beauty is before me and Beauty behind me.
Above me and below me hovers the beautiful.
I am surrounded by it, I am immersed in it.
In my youth I am aware of it, and, in old age, I shall walk quietly the beautiful trail.
In beauty, it is begun,In beauty, it is ended."
Sunrises begin and change very quickly as you can see below by the sequence of photo's...and beauty changes and increases as time passes..often times within a 20-30 minute time span...in all of the Four Directions.
