Friday 19th March – the day before the vernal equinox – the Met Office forecast suggested I might catch a sunrise
Screenshot from Met Office website: Gt Yarmouth 19 March 2021
But with the sunrise scheduled for 5:59 I needed to be out early
19 March 2021
Downriver from Haven Bridge; towards Breydon Water beyond Breydon Bridge
19 March 2021
Like Lot’s wife, I glance back… the awaited event must be nigh
19 March 2021
And here the sun shows herself, no mist nor clouds to hide her
19 March 2021
For an hour or so after, the sun tints the clouds and gilds the grasses
19 March 2021
As the sun rises she casts blinding light over Breydon Water
19 March 2021
Soon I acquire a walking companion who stays always slightly ahead…waddling
19 March 2021
And geese take to the air
19 March 2021
Low tide, a film of water covers the mud and reflects the blue sky. Beautiful.

And the much-photographed Berney Arms Mill
19 March 2021
As the path enters Burgh Castle, Spring greets us full frontal…
19 March 2021
Burgh Castle with its Roman ruins… a good place to stop for a coffee from my flask
19 March 2021
I choose a different route back… along a flooded lane
19 March 2021
and a track that takes me back to Breydon
19 March 2021
The photo doesn’t show that the trees either side are pussy willows (I’ll show you that in Tuesday Treat)
19 March 2021
A last look at Spring… until Tuesday Treat
Hope you enjoyed the walk
Those are wonderful captures!

Nature provides. I record and share. Apart from writing, it’s what I do. Brings me happiness… and that I like to share as well

Capturing the beauty of nature is an art. Not everyone is as good at it as you.

A beautiful sunrise, I can’t seem to get myself up early enough for one when I’m not at work! Although it’ll be later again next weekend.

It was a struggle. But I figured the sunrises are going to keep getting earlier until MidSummer, so best I catch it now at equinox. It was worth it
