Wow! That is really something, Crafty Lion. Your work-place must be incredibly well positioned and facing due west as well just at the right angle.
I've tried to get a few over here in the UK, strangely enough polluted air (dust particles) can, sometimes, produce the most amazing of affects...

My workplace was a 9-storey building (the tallest suburban building in my city) and it was taken from the 8th floor. So, yeah, pretty well-positioned!

When i used to work, till i retired last week, i walked to week very early just as the Sun was coming up, and the thing that used to amaze me, apart from being alive for another day, was the speed the Sun would move, as i walked it would just come into view, maybe a few hundred yards later i would look again, and as it got brighter, and trying not to blind myself it had risen in the sign quite a bit by then, then i say to myself, but we are moving at 24 thousand miles an hour!
But as much like sunrises and Sun sets, its also the wonderful coloured cloud formations blow my mind as the Sun sets, well strange cloud formations in general, yes i often stop and look at the clouds, and then i look at people walking down the street all on their phones, so sad?

I know. People just don’t take the time to admire the wonders of nature around them anymore.
I must admit, I envy you and your sunrise sightings. I’ve never had the chance to capture them with my camera!

People are just too busy these days to stop and stand around and admire nature, or set up their camera to capture it. I stil do, even though I really struggle to see it these days. Often one of myc arers will tip me off!
Re sunrise, well it's one of Nature's greatest ever shows, but the audience just go on sleeping through it.
Sunsets are a lot more popular simply because people are around to see it and photograph it, often people will hang around outside with a drink and friends to get a good shot.

It’s one of the few I took by the beach in my city (Adelaide, South Australia) on Valentine’s Day, believe it or not.Now that sure is one hell of a sunset...Where was it taken?

Every time you see some one walking anywhere always got their face in their phones, if i take mine out always stuck in my pocket out of the way, as i look around at our amazing planet, the other day the clouds were just mind blowing, lower cloud with tiny whispers of the jet stream above, i stopped and was looking up, just in awe, people must have thought what's up with that looney
Wow again and thanks for that. Sure looks a great place to visit.
You are very lucky to live so close to a natural beauty spot like that and have the opportunity to visit and capture it at its finest.

RIP dinosaurs. Beautiful picture!
Over here in the UK we are getting a plague of 'Northern Lights'. Think it must be something to do with Global Warming...

I think it has to do with solar winds hitting earths magnetic field, but I'd have to look it up. I've always wanted to see auroras in person.Over here in the UK we are getting a plague of 'Northern Lights'. Think it must be something to do with Global Warming...
