What heaven!

SOCIAL BRIDGE ~ Jean Tubridy connecting with you from Ireland 
Beautiful Jean. Let me see if I understand – you arrived back home at sunrise? Whew! that must have been an early start.
Hi Paul, early by my standards anyway but it was worth it all in the end!
That’s a superb photo Jean. Your eye was in. But then as Antoine DeSaint-Exupery said – “It is with that the heart that one sees clearly; what is essential is invisible to the eye”.
Hi John, great to hear from you. What a wonderful quote! Thanks for bringing it here.
There’s nothing that compares to a beautiful sunrise or sunset. The sight is so calming..
Hi Joni, yes I adore sunrises and sunsets too. This one was especially calming.
What a welcome!
Absolutely, Letizia.
And not just the sun and sky, but that water! And the tender line where water meets the beach, just along the bottom…
Sandy, it probably won’t surprise you that I got a bit of a drenching while taking the photo but the water was balmy.
Just gorgeous, Jean. I’m tempted to say it reminds me of the way the autumn sun hits the abandoned wasteground by the building site along the Luas tracks, but that would be a lie, so I won’t.
Tara, I think the Autumn sun can work magic with almost anything or any place. So maybe if you look a bit harder at that wasteground at sunrise, you might be surprised!
This is very true. Also, I might try a little less Cynical Toast of a morning.
Why not try golden breakfast. It’s fun to have colour themed meals. They are one of my many foibles!
Who couldn’t see this and ‘like’ it. Beautiful. Great weather we’re getting these days.
Hi Tric, thanks for your kind words.
Must say the weather has been pretty kind to us here in the Sunny South East compared to a lot of other places over the summer. I always think of rain as the reason for our lovely greens. Guess we can’t have it every way!
Isnt it wonderful how the camera can catch and relay the beauty around us, or the sorrow, or the anger, or the hurt. May be its being able to create that distance via the lens that helps us understand and appreciate…I don’t know…and yes, I’m procrastinating again…back to the Lit Review now. But seriously Jean, thank you for sharing your wonderful photos…I have been thinking about returning home to Ireland and what it would mean for me and your photos help….back to the books:):)
Olga, thanks for such a thought-provoking comment.
I’m glad the photos are helping you in your deliberations. Good luck with them. Ireland is waiting for you …
Your photos are always beautiful! What a lovely welcome home! Nature always has a way of lifting my spirits no matter what the weather.

Hi Nancy, the perfect welcome, for sure.
Must say, I’m like you in terms of my relationship with nature. I love her moodiness.
What a welcome home! Beautiful.
Many thanks, Andrea. The whole drama of the sunrise was a wonderful spectacle.
A gorgeous welcome home, Jean!
Absolutely, Lauren.
What’s the story morning glory!
Ahhh… another beaut, Jean! Truly, a sunrise like that could turn any frown upside-down 🙂 ♥ ❤
It certainly changed my outlook, I can tell you.
