This blushing Cosmos flower’s name signifies unity, as a whole, as sunlight shines through it’s transparent petals. A metaphor? Copyright 2018 Pamela Breitberg
Cosmos is a favorite Daisy variety of gardeners, easily grown from seed each summer. Copyright 2018 Pamela Breitberg

Of course I chose to take a walk one day when I “thought” rain was moving away from me; heading toward Anglin’s Pier, Lauderdale by the Sea, Florida. Copyright 2018 Pamela Breitberg

Dawn brings out the blue tones that quickly dissipate as the sun emerges. This morning’s sunrise was slowed by heavy clouds. Compare the color tones before sunrise and just after sunrise.

Gradually, as the sun rises and shines through holes in the clouds the setting loses it’s blueish cast. Copyright 2018 Pamela Breitberg
The sun’s light warms both the air as well as the color palette. Copyright 2018 Pamela Breitberg

With sufficient concealment the Sun’s arrival through the cloud covered sky resembles the Moon. Dense cloud cover allowed me to aim my camera directly at the Sun as it appeared to weave in and out of the rapid moving clouds. Unswerving witness to nature’s forte.
