This is my interpretation of a photo I took last summer. The sunrise itself was beautiful but the reflection it cast on the clouds was incredible.

My daughter took this photo of Coit Tower enveloped by morning fog. It reminds me of Carl Sandburg’s poem Fog.

The fog comes on little cat feet. It sits looking over harbor and city on silent haunches and then moves on.
