Cold Texas Sunrise

Cold Texas Sunrise

This was on a cold and misty morning, in the south of Texas. The cold mornings are now gone and the first real heat and humidity is being felt.  Summer is soon here.

This is a power station near Brazos Bend State Park taken on the same morning as this.

Dette er en kald morgen med litt tåke sør i Texas.  De kalde morningene er over for i år og den første varmen og fuktigheten kan kjennes.  Det er snart sommer.

Bildet er av et kraftverk nær Brazos Bend State Park og ble tatt samme morgen som dette.

  1. Superb smoothness in this study. That air looks thick enough to cut with knife !

  2. Bonita composición y precioso juego de tonalidades cálidas. Un saludo.

  3. Fascinating capture of bleak vastness crowned by a frosty, pale blue sky.

  4. the thin slice of mist on the horizon is what i find really interesting.. great shot.. :)

  5. Outstanding shot. Many things to see here.

    In North Texas it looks like we’re going to have one more round of “winter” coming late next week. But yeah it’s been way too warm way too soon.

  6. There is such a wonderful mood to this shot with the colour and the mist. The distant smoke stacks contrasting with that lone trees gives an almost romantic feel.

  7. Nice Shot. I really like the straight lines and the way the factory mimics the telephone pole.

  8. beautiful shot. love the horizon line representation and those trees. nicely framed also. congrats

  9. Beautiful serene image. I was wondering how this image will look without the power line and the post carrying those power lines.

  10. Very nice landscape ! I like the different colors, from dark orange to light blue.

    Nicolas — March 9th, 2009 at 05:36

  11. I like the bronze shine on the country. Great colours.

    oldshutterhand — March 9th, 2009 at 08:22

  12. Wow! The industrial ambiance photos are my favorite. Excellent framing. I can felt the air humidity…

    Doum — March 9th, 2009 at 08:24

  13. wow I like the colours

    BoB — March 9th, 2009 at 09:57

  14. Lots of layers in this shot, great capture!

    Thomas @ bipsie — March 9th, 2009 at 10:41

  15. love how the colour is so delicatly rendered..graphical too with this composition.

    CushmoK — March 9th, 2009 at 11:49

  16. Great lighting! I really like the colors.

    Cassy — March 9th, 2009 at 12:23

  17. All the elements are wonderful and the atmosphere is wonderful with the cold misty frosty air.

    Laurie — March 9th, 2009 at 14:05

  18. Nice mix of nature and technology. The placement of the pole separate from but related to (or echoing) the power plant works well, as does that diagonal sweep of wires at the top.

    Harry — March 9th, 2009 at 14:42

  19. Lys, linjer og kontraster i flott samensetting! Hva er en kald morgen i Texas? Litt annerledes en kalde heimlandet antar jeg :)

    Takk for hyggelige kommentarer hos meg :)

    Rune — March 9th, 2009 at 16:19

  20. Nice composition, great view!

    Robert Kruh — March 10th, 2009 at 07:05

  21. Bonsoir,
    Very nice composition, tones, smoothness..Bravo!

    jelb — March 10th, 2009 at 10:35

  22. I love the tone and the mist in the background really great framing !!

    Philip — March 10th, 2009 at 11:30

  23. Interesting vertical lines. I like the softness of the tones

    William Darhy — March 10th, 2009 at 13:49

  24. Wonderful colours and atmosphere.

    Wolfgang — March 10th, 2009 at 14:05

  25. For me, there is something relevant here. The view along this road and the picture you should have stopped for should have included a cow. This looks like a road in the middle of nowhere and there are smokestacks spouting pollution in fresh air space. The utility pole adds to the mood of this. I love the colors in this. Nice!

    Mike Paulison — March 10th, 2009 at 15:00

  26. wowww… i like this kind of captures a lot!!!

    Marco Marques — March 10th, 2009 at 20:35

  27. My comment seems misstated. Along a road like this, one would expect to find a rural setting complete with cows, etc. Instead, we drive in ‘out of the way places’ and find polluting smokestacks where our pastures were. Anyone can find a cow, but this photo has relevance for me in a changing landscape. The utility pole, the haze and the great colors add to this feeling. A shot that only those with a good eye would have stopped for.

    Michael Paulison — March 10th, 2009 at 23:01

  28. Excellent composition; I love the atmosphere on early morning photos. The colours are beautiful.

    Miles Wolstenholme — March 11th, 2009 at 03:40

  29. great landscape with mystic atmosphere …

    Mohammadreza — March 11th, 2009 at 05:06

  30. well done composition. with out the source of the power, the telephone pole just wouldn’t be needed. beautiful colors too. cheers.

    Ryan — March 12th, 2009 at 21:18

  31. very nice lines :-) and great colours!

    kallopeter — March 13th, 2009 at 02:03

  32. Des éléments simples qui sont mis en valeur par la lumière!

    Cath — March 16th, 2009 at 14:24

  33. This photo really evokes wide open spaces to me, but spaces that have been touched by civilization. Good eye to see this photo. Thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving a comment.

    Teri — March 16th, 2009 at 20:00

  34. Great composition, colours, capture… everything.

    Neergaard — March 18th, 2009 at 04:37

  35. Excellent work, as usual.
    Best regards,

  36. Lovely colours and contrast between nature and industry.

    I bet your cold Texas mornings aren’t as cold as cold Scottish mornings – especially after a few weeks in Thailand!

    Tom — March 22nd, 2009 at 17:03

  37. Very nice shot.
