The corresponding sunrise to my previously posted sunset, this time over Tasman Lake. The clouds weren't as cooperative as we had hoped, but we still got a very nice scene. December 22, 2025.

(The astute eye may realize that these two pictures spanned the summer solstice! So we stayed up late to watch sunset and then were up very early the next day to watch sunrise. It was certainly worth it.)
