Morning has broken, like the first morning
Blackbird has spoken, like the first bird
Praise for the singing, praise for the morning
Praise for the springing fresh from the word

Sweet the rain's new fall, sunlit from heaven
Like the first dewfall, on the first grass
Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden
Sprung in completeness where his feet pass

Mine is the sunlight, mine is the morning
Born of the one light, Eden saw play
Praise with elation, praise every morning
God's recreation of the new day.

Bed at 3am and up at 4:30....But worth it to see the dawning of a new day at 5:15...

Last night my blipper friend cancelled today's meet so I was lost for something to do. I decided on a dawn shoot at the beach close by rather than mope for the day and I was lucky with the weather as lots of rain expected.

Went to photo new cygnets and was pleasantly surprised by ten new arrivals in one nest. Spend the day revisiting until they eventually took to the water... The wait was worth it.... just saying
