Sunrises

As the sun rises gently to kiss the velvet sky, I experience an extraordinary feeling of blazing happiness while a brand new day comes alive setting the sky aglow in order to promise the newborn day dazzling blue skies.

Larnaca

Sunrises have a unique beauty! Unlike sunsets, which announce the culmination of the day evaporating slowly into dusk, they herald the promise of a new day, a new beginning while the sun slowly arises from its slumber and sets the town aglow. The sky then resembles a kind of prism. All colours blend together and the sun slowly begins to warm the air. I can only marvel at its brilliant rays on the sea at Mackenzie Beach.

Larnaca is very peaceful and quiet at this time of day. Most people are still sleeping unaware of the first golden rays of the sun creeping through the twilight and over the horizon. I can only hear birds singing and some seagulls squawking as they hasten to welcome the new day. By 7:00 am the town is awake while the burning heat takes over on yet another hot day in August. Sunrises take my breath away and a feeling of bliss sweeps over me as I watch the sun flirting with the sea.
