Sun rise

He who binds himself a joy
Does the winged life destroy.
But he who kisses the joy as it flies
Lives in eternity's sun rise.

Great industrial picture set against a lovely sun rise.

Great exposure for this sunrise, good to see the buildings kept dark to show up the lights and that superb sky. V

belching smoke like this can actually enrich the sky`s colours at the extremes of the day...wise words from Blake too...it`s often better just to savour the moment...V

Here Comes the Sun!

Having a bit of a scenic change?
Strong shot with the smoke. Nice sunrise. I love the contrail, escape from the city.

Industrial smoke makes great sunrises and sunsets, and this is no exception. Great colour and composition. Well done.

I am not sure I go too much on the poem - but I love the image, absolutely stunning! Everything is right about it to my mind. Big V

Kissing the joy as it flies: such a suitable metaphor for those streaks of golden dawn.
Chris01-Mar-2012 21:23
Glad to see the sun shining on your neck of the woods as well. What a difference from your usual landscapes!

One of my all time Blake favorites, such insight on happiness and "letting go." How nicely you have matched the metaphor with the sun's sweet ascendance.
chris morton01-Mar-2012 17:07
a splendid sunrise and the industrial foreground suits it - wouldn't want to recite the poem without some practice tho

I love the silhouettes, same sunrise as mine, different outlook.
