the sun came up this morning

Another couple of long days and nights spent on the highways lately... One drive spent watching the sun set, low in the sky, all oranges, pinks and purples.

The other road trip was during the day, the sun was shining brightly, with the rays of light breaking through the clouds. I always find that so inspiring. And just as I was contemplating reaching for my camera, to photograph the light, a circular rainbow halo appeared around the sun...

And I was breathless.
