First, Happy New Year to you all, and what better way to kickstart the Sunrises and Sunset thread for 2023 with a sunrise on New Years Day!
Last years thread provided lots of interesting and colourful photos, and it's time to kickstart the thread for 2023. The link to last years thread: "Sunrises and Sunsets 2022: share your photos here" if you're interested in looking back.
The photos don't all have to be of the sun rising or setting, they can be dusk, reflections from the sun in the colours that are often cast on objects.
You can still post any sunrise or sunset photos from 2022 to the old thread, and it will be nice to see your photos for 2023 here.
My very first photo for 2023, and as the sun rose above Hay Wood
Baddesley Clinton looking as always, splendid with the colours of the rising sun
My favourite five bar gate also catching the colours of the rising sun.

Thanks for the compliment. Yes I think it was lucky that I caught both. You wouldn’t of known this so don’t worry about it but just for future reference I prefer Zo if that’s ok with you cause I’m transgender
I think it’s really colourful when the sky turns purple and the Robin makes a good atmosphere when it sings during sunset. The Robin doesn’t allways sing at sunset though recently it’s been joining in with the foxes after sundown and by that i mean calling not howling. If Robins howled Aswell as Foxes I wouldn’t know what to think cause iv never heard a Robin howl before. But I think there is something about a Robin calling as the sun goes down and the sky turning differant colours like purple at the same time

Apologies for misspelling your name Zo.
no problem. you wouldn’t of known until I mentioned it.
Again thanks for the glowing skit and Robin.
thats ok.
By the way you made a funny mistake.
iv never seen a Glowing skit Robin before. Maybe its a type of Robin that is more commonly found at sunset rather than any time of day. A type of Robin that glows shades of colours you usually find when the sky changes colour during sunset in order to blend in and let everyone know it’s his or her territory at the same time. Its call is very similar to our more common Robin This is the first time iv heard that type of Robin. If I end up makeing a book and writeing a story about this sun set species of Robin il have to thank you for giveing me the idea
