Sunrise in the Curtains

Is this true lomography .... even the simplest of subjects can be beautiful.
Maybe this is an example of what Hopkins meant in "Gods Grandeur"

THE WORLD is charged with the grandeur of God.
It will flame out, like shining from shook foil;
It gathers to a greatness, like the ooze of oil
Crushed. Why do men then now not reck his rod?
Generations have trod, have trod, have trod;
And all is seared with trade; bleared, smeared with toil;
And wears man’s smudge and shares man’s smell: the soil
Is bare now, nor can foot feel, being shod.

And for all this, nature is never spent;
There lives the dearest freshness deep down things;
And though the last lights off the black West went
Oh, morning, at the brown brink eastward, springs—
Because the Holy Ghost over the bent
World broods with warm breast and with ah! bright wings.

This one is my favorite. Simple, geometric with good light!

I do love this kind of pictures... Just shapes and colours with no specific meaning (if not just beauty)
