My office window looks out over a broad vista of the Ohio River valley, facing southeast. I have a perfect view of the horizon when the sun comes up.
Sunrise views are often there - if only I take time to notice them. There was just the right mix of clouds, atmospheric conditions, and jet contrails on this crisp January morning to produce this spectacular sunrise. I saw it and trekked up to the roof of the building. I gently trudged over glazed ice, framed the picture, and shot it. A minute or two later the colors faded into daylight.
A usual, the photo falls short of depicting the real beauty of the scene. But it is still a wonderful picture, testimony that the heavens do reveal the glory of God - Psalm 19:1-4:
1 The heavens declare the glory of God;
the skies proclaim the work of his hands.
2 Day after day they pour forth speech;
night after night they reveal knowledge.
3 They have no speech, they use no words;
no sound is heard from them.
4 Yet their voice[b] goes out into all the earth,
their words to the ends of the world.
