Tequila Sunrise


"Its another tequila sunrise,this old world
Still looks the same,
Another frame, mm..."
Just another work day, same routine as usual. Come into the office, sit in my chair and power up the PC; wait for the log in and the inevitable seven emails that await me.
The office is unusually quiet, not a sound, nobody discussing the previous evening's events. Surprise, eight emails. It is time to get a cup of coffee before answering the emails.
Not sure why, but I decided to bring my camera to the breakroom. Glad I did, after enjoying the first sip, I noticed the spectacular sunrise out our breakroom windows.
I power-gnaushed down that mug of coffee, and another while enjoying the sunrise. Email will have to wait. What a great start to the day! Those eight emails didn't seem so important anymore after witnessing this Tequila Sunrise. I ignored them, only to answer them at 10:30.
Some days you need to treat yourself; this old world, things are the same, a different frame.

You were at work at sunrise?! Well it was worth getting up early because you got this fantastic photo. I frequently change my computer background screen. Do you mind if I use this beauty?

Sunrises/sets are nice but there is often a sameness. You have something original here. The texture you create with the bare tree and the line of evergreens in the background, picking apart an exceptional sky, is something special. It has the efrfect of a stained glass window.

Very beautiful sky. We rarely get to see it here like this, if ever.

Gorgeous, it looks like fire in the sky, what a great office view to begin the workday with. Glad you had camera with you, and snapped a shot to share with me.

Now that is too funny. I was getting my kids ready for school and I noticed this very sunset with the small puffy clouds and it was orange as can as your photos shows.

I was too busy with my routine to take a snapshot, but I'm so glad you captured it. I'll have to show my family as three minutes later, the orange glow was gone and the opportunity had passed.
