Morning Brilliance

“80% of success is showing up” – Woody Allen
I love sunrises. They are the most peaceful time of day where the wind is often just a gentle breeze, the water can look like a mirror and the colors in sky will be their most vivid. Sunrises in the summer months can be a challenge though…. that usually means a 3:30 am wakeup call for a photographer, and I am not a morning person. But it starts by just getting one foot out of bed and on the floor. The rest is just showing up.

Winged Rock

Shiprock – The Navajo name for the peak, Tsé Bitʼaʼí, “rock with wings” or “winged rock”, refers to the legend of the great bird that brought the Navajo from the north to their present lands. The name “Shiprock” or Shiprock Peak or Ship Rock derives from the peak’s resemblance to an enormous 19th-century clipper ship.
