Moon over Lake Ray Hubbard. Heath, TX
Merry Christmas to all of you who may stop by. I’m still in Texas with friends and family. Well, all of the gifts are opened, there no longer remains any mystery. I did NOT get my Nikon D3, so, for the rest of the vacation, the D40 will have to do! 
The children, as well as the adults, are still snuggled all warm in their beds, the adults with visions of credit card bills dancing in their heads! For us, it was a cash Christmas! Yippee!
This morning, as usual, I got up before sunrise and went out to take pictures. It never gets old. As I was traveling light this time, I don’t have a tripod, but that just means that I have to live life at 1600 ISO. The mornings have been wonderful with temperatures in the upper 20′s and lower 30′s. When it’s that chilly, the sunrise has additional significance!
Christmas Flight
Some may call sunrise shots cliche, but that’s ok. they’re still special to me. Anyway, I hope that you had a very merry Christmas and that you were able to share that spirit and your abundance with someone that you love, or perhaps, someone that you didn’t even know. It’s never too late!

Merry Christmas to you and yours Paul. It has been a pleasure getting to know you through your photography and wonderful thoughtful posts. You are a talented photographer and a very insightful person.
I didn’t get my D3 either…Oh well maybe next year!
No D3 under my tree either – but I think because Santa is really in the know about the D3x! Hope you had a great holiday!
The color is amazing!
With some delay, but still: Merry Christmas to you, Paul!
I wish I had the possibility to enjoy such a sunrise over here in Germany. But instead, it’s just gray. Anyway, both shots really show the nice, calm, clean solitude of early mornings or late nights. Beautiful…
