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.

Forgot all about this thread...
From 28th August
(Pardon the Scottish Accent)
Lovely sky this evening
Hawthorn lake, actually more like a large pond, restored over tens years ago as part of nascent Longwater road nature reserve. About 7:45am, last Sunday. I'm standing on a bridlepath which had been constructed over the past two weeks.
90% luck, 5% field craft, 5% camera skills.
Colebrook lake (north) , Moor Green Lakes Nature Reserve.
Shame about the pylon.
Lovely shots Angus. I think number 3 is my fave. If the pylon bothers you, just use a bit of Photoshop magic to make it disappear ... or you could go back with a hacksaw, then take the shot again ...
Canada geese, flying east to west over Moor Green Lakes and nascent Longwater road nature reserves.
As were these Mute Swans.
Sun, just cresting tree line as I headed for home at about 7:20am. Still felt like 8:20am due to clocks going back.
