Through hazy skies, the Raleigh area enjoyed a variegated view this morning during mid-twilight, in the top image (better large on black). The post-rise view, in #2, provided a glimpse into the complexity of the cloud cover (also better LOB). And just before sunrise proper, a local resident slowly popped her head above the edge of the green to find out what all the clicking was about, above (again, better LOB). Sweet sunrise event!
