Dawn over Menton

The first sign of winter is often an amazing dawn. Normally a massive orange ball in the sky - blinding and impossible to photograph. This one, with cloud, was easier. Taken from my terrace a week or so ago.

  4. Fantastic colors and good composition. The sky is a bit threatening, isn't it?

  5. You have a beautiful view and is that a Moroccan lamp from the market in Monte Carlo?

  6. Felicia, yes - bought it a few years ago at that same fair. In fact, it's getting to look rather tacky now after several years in the sun and wind but I like the shape and ignore the broken bits!

  14. C'est de quelle couleur, a l'aube la? (periwinkle, peut-etre).Quel un beau panorama celui-ci. Je suis regarder a ta photographie aujourd'hui et tu as un oeil pour nature et ocean. L'aube bleue est vive par contraste a les douces vertes et la terrasse et lampe surplomb--magnifique.
