When asked his favorite color, Gramps would always reply, "sky-blue pink." Though he may have first heard about this color in a children's story about Uncle Wiggily, he was serious and, if pressed, would describe that magical moment some mornings just before the sun rises above the horizon, when it lights up pink clouds against a vivid blue sky.

I'm with gramps all the way. The greatest magic is befor the sun leaves her bed.
Beautiful colors in your sunrise. I like Gramps favorite color too.
Wonderful photo.
Beautiful colored sky, but I'm most thrilled by the mention of Uncle Wiggily, a childhood favorite of mine.
Hi Eco.... I love visiting your blog to see that beautiful area out there in Montana. Glad you can get back out in the snow and get some exercise.. I'm like you --in that I enjoy being outside in winter. It's so invigorating!!!
Your sky ---and those colors---is fabulous.

Love the electric quality of the reaching sky colors while below dawn fades softly in.
Sky-blue pink makes perfect sense to me!
