A morning walk on the beach at sunrise

This post will cover a couple of challenges
Beautiful Sunday By @ace108,
The beautiful part of the post is a walk on the beach in the early morning

and
Sublime Sunday, created by @c0ff33a,
Sublime because of the lovely subtle colors of nature on the morning I took these photos

I do believe these shots were taken last Sunday but I could be wrong but I don't think the guidelines for either of these challenges say the photos have to be taken on a Sunday so it should all be OK :)

They were all taken from starting around 5Am when I headed to Walnut Beach and Silver Sands State Park for a morning walk, Starting with this shot looking down the beach at the pier

I guess this is also a response to the challenge or request for me to get my act together and edit some of the shots I took of the sunrise this morning from @johannpiber

This next shot is taken a little later while standing on the other side of the pier in the first shot, and you may notice not a person is in shot in either of these shots, when I first got to the beach I was the only one there and I love the peace and quite when that happens

This next shot is a little further down the beach and I loved the glow reflected in the pool of water left behind at low tide

Now I am on the boardwalk beside Silver Sands State Park, that morning I walked back and forth along the beach and boardwalk a few times passing the .3 Mile Marker a few times

And this is at the far end of the park and as far as I walked along the beach that morning, About an hour and a quarter after my first shot, and one of the most refreshing hours I have spent for a while with the peace and tranquility being on the beach

Great pictures again. I need to start going on more morning walkings. I wanted to get to 15k steps today but I am only at like 6000 right now so I have to go walk a lot. Have a good one.

Thanks Kindly, today I was under my 10K goal but then while doing things around the house with my phone still on my belt, I got to 9K and then just had to do some quick stepping while vacuuming and doing other things to get up to the goal LOL

Damn you have the talent to catch that light :). Blame it on the Sony if you will, but that's bullshit, we all know it's all about the photographer...

Thanks I have fun getting out and trying to get good shots, I wont blame it on the Sony I love this camera it is by far the best one i have ever owned I wasn’t totally happy with these shots when I edited them, but i think thats more i was tired after a hectic day at the time, and I do find y Mood can seriously effect both he photos I take and whatI can do with editing them

Thanks for such a kind comment truly appreciated :)

Superb photos! The sea, the beach, the sky ... the sunrise and the colors, you combined everything perfectly.

Thanks Kindly, I appreciate such a kind comment it’s funny when I edited these photos I was not so happy with them and almost didnt share them, but i think that may have bene I was tired when editing the photos and its funny I find my mood at the time can really effect how I feel both taking and editing photos

It happens not to see the value or beauty immediately. I see them as very successful.

Thanks thats so kind of your to say

With pleasure!

I am in love with the second shot, which leads my eye all the way down the expanse of the beach, showing off the curvature of the shoreline and the ripples in the sand!

Truly a beautiful piece of Sunday.

Your sunrise shots are legendary here on Steemit. Much love to them

Upped and Steemed

tip I am afraid to use it now! I need to check to see if it is working again!

Thanks so much, I will admit when I prepared this post last night I almost did something else as I just was not so happy with them but after getting such nice feedback from you and others maybe I was being a little hard on myself

I am wondering whats up with Tipu its seems ot be working but the refunds were weird and I still haven't seen any explanation of why it happened

Not all of my tips are working and my SBI didn't go through. I did it exactly the way I was supposed to. I stopped worrying about it and sent her steem. She may get a bonus tomorrow! ;)

Yeah I noticed that with the tips I wonder if !tip is working now
Ohh and on the SBI it probably did go through but it can take up to 24 or sometimes 48 before you see it so I just trust that it does and don’t check nowadays

Oh! I had no idea! Thank you!

Sorry I should have told you that I thought it hadn’t gone through when I first sent SBI shares also

I cannot wait for my summer holiday and this view of sunrise and sunset on the beach. 😎

Posted using Partiko iOS

Wishing you a great summer holiday when it comes ;)

What a beautiful morning walk! I remember this place ) All photos are awesome!

Posted using Partiko Android

Thanks its one of my favorite spots to start the day at :)

And no wonder )

Ohh yes if I start the day on the beach it always seems to be a great day whatever happens :)

start the day on the beach

This phrase is a perfect start of the day itself )))

Yes Indeed, its not so much fun when i start the day with a train ride into the city

well, you still can read a fun book in a train :)

True enough I do a member x of work emails steemit reading and or watching videos

Beautiful sunrise. I have often wanted to go up that way to Connecticut. I have been to New York City twice and upstate New York when I was a kid camping, yet I don't ever remember being in Connecticut.

It was such a lovely Start tot he day Ct is a beautiful State well worth visiting, or the long commute to NYC to have weekends near the water ;)

Thanks for your visit

Terrific sunrise. All photos are outstanding and the one with the glowing reflection is my favourite.

Thanks so much for your visit and feedback truly appreciated ;)

What an awesome way to spend the morning! Those are absolutely terrific pictures. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks it was such a nice start to the day :)

So, you want me to be honest, JJ?

Honestly, at first sight of these sunrise photos I thought, that I want to post some other photos tonight, but not the next photos of the sunset I posted yesterday.
I wanted to post just something else, completely different from sunrises or sunsets - maybe the little alien I found the other day

Enough joking, now seriously:

Apart from the fact, that all photos are great in color and composing, I like the second one most. The sand ripples at the beach, illuminated by the sunrise, and the beautiful clouds, both lead to the sunrise at the horizon. The clouds even form the shape of an arrow. I also like the fourth photo most, where the clouds make the same curve as the boardwalk does.
But all are so very good, and I would love to have such a beach near my home. You were so lucky to be alone and also the first one there, because I cannot see any disturbing footsteps ;)

Thank you for posting the photos today - now my waiting has an end, because I really thought, I might have to wait til winter 😉

LOL well first off I am glad I did not make you wait till winter, and thanks for your feedback, although I do think you are being far too kind

That little alien bug is awesome never seen something like that

I know, I am too kind, but what can I say? You asked me to be honest, didn't you?

This little bug, or whatever it is, didn't want to get photographed and always tried hide behind that stem. This is the only somehow sharp photo I could take of it, and I have no idea, what it is :)

I wish I could help with identifying the bug but I have trouble telling the difference between a Ladybug and a butterfly lOL

Thanks again for your kind feedback so appreciated

You're welcome JJ :)

The Ladybug is the one in black with the red dots ...


Source: Wikipedia<

... or was it red with black dots? LOL

I don't think, I will post this ugly little thing - maybe if I see another one, of which I can get better photos, but I don't think so, because it is soo small, and I wonder, how I could even see it ;)

Ohh so that’s a ladybug funny thing is I thought they were more bug shaped like 🐞
Where would I be without you helping to edumacate me 😂

Yeah, you must know, that here in the old world, we have very good schools, which are free by the way, where we get edumacated very well ;) lol
And because I am a very nice person, I always like to help the underedumacated, if needed 😊

I have never heard that word, but I love it ;)

Edumacate; An uneducated way people, including Redneck's, Hill-Billy's and Feral people use in place of the word Education to sound smarter than they may be.
Source: https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=edumacate

Dang that word exists I thought i had made it up when I joke about education, my Bubble is burst I must have heard it before and stole it

Back in NZ educations is also free and I did fairly well, although i never made it to University, more because i was bored with school and wanted to work, I was nagged by Family and Teachers to go to Uni but I said I would take a one year break to work and then head to University and the one year just dragged on for 43 Years LOL

Wow! Beautiful walk!! Love those colours!

Thanks it was a great walk to start the day with :)

This is so beautiful and soothing! Thanks for sharing!

And thanks for your visit

Have a great week ahead ;)

Thamk you! You are very welcome!

Good morning @tattoodjay, your photography is absolutely gorgeous, as always. I was at the Jersey shore last week and nearly every morning I was on the beach between 5-6 am. I so enjoy the peace I find walking the beach alone, I tend to marvel at the beauty I see, then find myself thanking God for all the blessings I have enjoyed throughout my life. I think I'm gonna follow your lead with the combo #beautifulsunday @ace108, and #sublimesunday @cOff33a. Just got in from a walk around the farm, took some pics and picked some #fruitandvegtables

These are beautiful shots! I love them! We get great sunsets over the ocean on our side of the country, and you get sunrises! Absolutely stunning!

Thank Mother Nature was in fine form that morning I must say, and I am lucky here we have beaches that can get nice sunrises and others that are good for sunsets, so I am truly fortunate ;)

Have a great week ahead ;)

You too!

A nice walk with nice result. I thought the photos would be able to tell you when it was taken. No, the activity does not need to be a Sunday (though no saying that won't change in future) but the post have to be on Sunday. So, I cut off around 2359h in Honolulu time which I think is the latest convenient time zone.

Thanks fir the clarification and hosting this tag I see so many awesome posts using it 😎👍😎

Thanks it was a lovely way to start the day

Incredible sun rises. I like the third one with the reflection in the water caught on the sand - but they are all incredibly beautiful.
