The pre-sunrise period of dawn is usually when the best color happens. Not much of that occurred on May 19, but what follows sunrise is called “golden hour” for a reason.
No mystery about the subject here. Just more of that peaceful experience when someone has a place to oneself as the world wakes for another day.
Stunning, Steve. Just stunning.

Placid indeed. Your text reminded me of: “Make new friends but keep the old; one is silver and the other gold.”

I’ve always enjoyed the variety of ways you show your ponds, and this is especially lovely. The clouds add a bit of visual weight, I think. It feels like a nice, balanced image — like your morning, it seems.
I found a pond or small lake yesterday, covered in water lilies. I only had my macro lens with me (there was a reason for that) but I’m headed back there this morning, fully equipped. The only access is on the west side, and I’ll not be there at sunrise (it’s two and a half hours away) but I might be able to find a better location. I enjoy your pond photos too much not to give it a try myself!

I certainly hope you were successful in your pond pursuit and am looking forward to images. I am not sure where I’ll go tomorrow morning…maybe a pond.
