Mauna Kea is so glorious in all its heights. Literally on top of the world. Hawaiʻi skies have it all!
I liked the purple and orange colors, with the small clouds in the foreground giving it a feeling of depth. It made me feel energetic and hopeful for the beginning of a new day. I think this photo is special because of its color and complexity.
I just thought the combination of city and nature was an interesting photo.
Just loved the colors in the sky that morning, felt really peaceful looking at them. Special because it was right over the ocean here. The Golden Rays just really make me feel like I live in Heaven here on Earth.
God provides us a nightly sky show that never disappoints.
I liked this photo, wispy clouds, because it looked like jellyfish floating in the sky. It made me feel like flying. The photo was special because I had never seen clouds like that before.
I liked this photo, red sky sunrise, because it looked like the whole sky was on fire, it made me feel in awe, it was special because you don't often see so much red and orange color completely covering the sky.
