First Dawn 2017

One of the benefits of January in Ontario 
(along with some unpleasant weather)
are the short days, 
bringing early dawns and sunsets.

For the artist this is great..
no excuses about sleeping in 
and missing the magic hour! 

Along with my four legged companions
 we're often out on an early walk
 as the sun rises.

Snow coating the ground has a cold blue cast 
and slowly alters from deep cobalt blues 
to warmer turquoise blues.
Here the sun is just peaking above the horizon
warming the air.
The light from houses in the distance 
contrasts with the remnants of night.
