I love this time of day, at this time of year, when we observe the 30 minutes or so before the sun crosses the horizon. Every day the light and colors are different, making familiar scenes take on new meanings.
At Waialae Beach Park, 6:51 am Tuesday. Sunrise was 16 minutes away. And within the next 10 minutes, the colors faded to gray. But for a few minutes, it was awesome.
