I woke up this morning at 5 am, unable to go back to sleep I started watching infomercials, bad idea. As soon as I shut my TV off, I looked outside and realized the sun was about to come up, so I put some clothes on, grabbed my camera and rode my skateboard down to the beach to watch the sun come up. Less then a minute later there I was, in pure bliss.

There is something about watching the sun come up in pure solitude listening to the waves crash and the ocean breeze hit your face. I am very fortunate to have moments like these in my life. My soul is purified.

Ah yes Edin, you are a fortunate to be able to admire the sun get up on the beach, in a contemplative solitude! This photo is magnificent and this surprising curved centring josy63 · 2011-02-16: 09:22

Wow! Nice. I know that feeling. I too have the open ocean view as a palette for a sunrise. It energizes me. RayNvb · 2011-02-24: 04:45
