Hampton Beach, NH
Time: 6:08 am
Driving towards the beach, looking at what lies ahead of me, and knowing it's going to be a glorious sunrise
Arriving just in time with my suspicions confirmed. The Gulls were taking flight, ready to start a new day of scavenging.
6:15 am
Can you think of a better view to wake up to as a bird? Or even as a person. Oh yeah, that's the good stuff.
6:27 am . . . and rising
A mirrored reflection to another sunrise. Do you think they have shades?
The surf has so many textures and colors as the sun rises. From deep pinks and purples to radiant golds and browns.
There was never a night or a problem that could defeat sunrise or hope

What a beautiful, scrumptious post, my friend. I am sitting here with my tongue hanging out.
the pictures are beautiful, can't wait for more.
These are absolutely stunning shots! Literally thought it couldn't get better than the ones on top but as I kept scrolling down they got more and more beautiful :)
OH, I want to wake up with those gulls, and that beach, and that sunrise ...... I want to be there!!
Great post!!
Definitely worth getting up early for! So it's true! The early bird DOES get the worm! The worm being wonderful pictures, that is!
What beautiful photos of a coastal sunrise. When I first saw your banner photo I thought it was St. Andrews-by-the-Sea in New Brunswick :-) Thanks for getting up so early in the morning to snap them.

So pretty! It has been a loooooong time since I got up that early. :D
Beautiful!!! Yes, I certainly hope they have shades on those windows!

Love it!
Ok, you've convinced me... it's definitely worth getting up early!
Absolutely gorgeous images!
Such stunning beauty! Love that 3some - or whatever they are called - with the ever rising sun! Thank you so much for sharing your excellent photos!
Beautiful! I recently discovered sunrises when I switched to working night shifts and get off at sunrise. They are amazing and honestly I think a tad bit better than sunsets!
This is my favorite place to vacation! I love the beach!
These are breathtakingly beautiful. I'm so glad you troubled to get up early and drive to the beach to catch these images. I'm going back for another look.
As always beautiful photos, thanks for sharing! Always a joy to visit your blog, I just did a post on Wallis Beach the other day (from our visit in september) i guess you know that beach as well.
Have a great day!
Thank you for sharing your beautiful pictures of this amazing sunrise. Such a comforting quote to ponder too. Happy Wednesday! La
Lovely pink photos! What a nice morning!
What a glorious morning. I love the mist, waves, and the light reflecting in the windows. The gulls have the right idea!
Amazing! What a wonderful way to start the day!
Gorgeous images, Sharon, the golden light IS magical and only can be captured by getting up early as you did. And I love the subtle textures on some of the photos! Thank you for sharing. – g
Wonderful photo's. Thank you. I would love to be able to take photo's half as good as your's.
Oh Sharon ~ what unbelievably gorgeous pictures. I can't even imagin how beautiful it must have been in person. You captured it magnificently!!!! Wish I was there to enjoy the sunrise with you instead of sitting here at my desk at work. Will you teach me how to use textures on my pictures?

Just breathtaking Sharon!
Absolutely beautiful. Such calming and wonderful shots.
These are just too beautiful for words.
Great shots Sharon. Such vivid colors and love the motion of the surf. Almost makes this night owl want to get up early to see the sunrise!
It's glorious! I love the sunrise over the water - lucky and lucky me to live close enough to indulge the need to watch such a sight.
I don't know how you do it, but your beautiful pictures take me back to some of the exquisite feelings I had as a child. I really wish someone would publish a coffee table book of your photographs.
*sigh* simply gorgeous, Sharon!
Oh what glorious pictures! You really are an artist. And I love the quote you have included. The textures of your pictures is magnificent. I can only imagine how beautiful it must have been in person.
I have been so busy and have also had the blogging blahs. I finally posted today after two weeks of not doing so. I guess it happens to all of us.
Thank you again for showing these beautiful pictures. There is no doubt about it, you are an artist!
You are so lucky to have the ocean within driving distance!!! Thank you so much for sharing!!! My favourite photo is the gull at 6:30 - the colours are so soft, and the pose is just perfect!
The world so beautiful when water and light merge and reflect.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, may all your wishes come true!
