Sunrise and the Flash
Thought Alexandra may like this.Almost blue but more blue green I feel.Also a collage from yesterday. The bird is a baby Black Shouldered Kite.

Re: Sunrise and the Flash
What a great shot! I thought I saw the flash today, first time in years. The sky was unusually clear with a yellow rather than red sun going down. I got distracted and when I looked up, I just saw a small green horizontal line (much like the photo) that disappeared in a second or so. I wonder if not seeing the sun before the last instant helped.
