The sunrise over Denver was absolutely gorgeous this morning. Despite the cold, I actually carried the older girls outside onto our front porch in their pajamas (for a few seconds) to see it. I didn’t get a picture of the most stunning, bright-orange-and-pink part, but I did take this shot, a few minutes later, from our upstairs bathroom, snapped with my iPhone 4 while standing in the bathtub:
That white-and-gray tower, incidentally, is the old abandoned Stapleton Airport control tower, which is currently the subject of much debate and discussion as to possible uses.
Anyway, we were hardly the only ones to notice the gorgeous sunrise. Over on Twitter, I retweeted a bunch of pretty pictures taken by various folks around the area, as well as this time-lapse video from Windsor, CO:
I consider that sunrise a Happy Belated New Year from Mother Nature. 🙂
Oh, and yes, as the title of this post implies, I submitted my photo to Andrew Sullivan.
If memory serves, I think Sullivan requires a window frame to be visible to be eligible for posting on his blog 😉
In best accredited-US-Press tradition, our esteemed blog-host can just Photo-Shop the window frame in, right ?
