The Sunrise

I'm living in a small house very close to the beach, it's just a few minutes walking along a trail that crosses a forest and then up and down some dunes.

When I manage to wake up early to see the sunrise over the ocean, I always take a lot of pictures with my smartphone, every moment is so beautiful in my eyes.

At this hour the sand is still virgin and fluffy, having not been stepped on by any human for many hours.

This results in a lot of photos, and I have a hard time choosing the best ones to publish, without it getting too long and repetitive.

Generally, at least for me, the sunrise is much more impressive when there are some clouds in the sky above, as the incidence of the sun's rays on them often produces a spectacle of colors.

Another detail that I like to watch is when the waves recede and the fine sand starts to reflect the shine like a mirror.

The tidal movement always continues, covers the sand with foamy water, and then moves away.

At its maximum point of withdrawal, the sand begins to absorb water and dry out, and it is then that it begins to reflect the shine.

When the sun finally shows its eye through the cloud window, this effect intensifies.

The same process restarts...

Now the rays are stronger and the orange glow reflects even more intensely.

The fine wet sand mirror does a beautiful exuberance job.

After enough delight, I decided to walk my way back to the house for coffee.
