1. Oh god, you "before dawn people"

make me tired. I think I have to go take a nap.

Beautiful shots.

3. No better time to ride than at day break.

One has the bike path pretty much to one's self.

2. These are GORGEOUS!

Thank you.

The ones that really light me up are the close-ups. I am a sucker for those...

I've gotten sunset pics that resemble these of yours, and they rank among my favorites...

4. Something that may interest you CalPeg; the bridges in this pic

were designed by the same guy who designed the Golden Gate bridge.

7. And now that you say that, I do see it.

Thanks for the info!

5. Phenomenal. But that last one

- there are no words I can find - it simply sings.

6. Beautiful!

Definitely worth getting up early for!

Interesting that the designer did the GG Bridge as well. Those sunrise shots bear some resemblance to our sunset on the SF Bay.
