Sunrise : Natures Colour Palette

I groaned when my husband rousted me out of bed to look at the sunrise this morning. One look and I was scrambling for my camera and that is when the fun started.
First I could not find the quick release for my camera, so that let the tripod out. Next up, opening the patio door to get to the back deck not realizing no one had turned the security system off.
Sirens, whistles and bells ensued from the house. House phone started ringing ( security monitoring service)
But I let my better half deal with all that, I am lucky the R.C.M.P. did not turn up:-) But by golly I got my sunrise...

The drama of the 'incident' will pass, but the drama of your image will remain. It was well worth it. :-)

And it was worth every bit of frustration and adrenalin.
Perfectly beautiful. Full points to your husband for being on the alert. Oh yes and the neighbors.
