Another early morning out of MtLawleyShire

Thursday morning – another early start for working in the city.

First view of sunrise – lousy light, brilliant colours, and me running for the bus at 6.00 am.

 

But this morning, I am working in the city centre, so I have time to stop and take photos.

From the plaza, with the sculptures outside the library for silhouetted contrast:

 

Wellington Street

Views of the sunrisen sky from the walkway across Roe Street and the walkway above Wellington Street, affording a lovely view of clouds and colour:

 

 

 

 

The Bell Tower, at the river end of Barrack Street, against sunrise

 

Looking down Hay Street east

 

touched by sunrise, steeped in night

 

Petunias at the breakfast cafe: Hay Street

 

Two views of early morning sky:

    

Hay and Barrack Street corner – buildings against the infinity of morning

 

contrasts of light, shadow and styles

Hay Street east in the full morning

 

And this: bright morning and light

Next posts will be sunsets and roses – & the lovely fluffy Fattee Cattee

Sunrise & city shots out of MtLawleyShire

I have been working days as well as nights recently.  The first was on Tuesday, straight after Easter, and though it is not cold, or even cool, it is, nonetheless, dark at 5.30 in the morning.  So – we have the moon:

Then, as I ran for the bus at 6.00 am – colour in the sky.  The pics are blurred due to me not understanding camera settings and the fact I had to stand in the middle of William Street & then run for the bus…

 

In the city, there was no colour:

 

In some of the streets, hemmed in by skyscrapers, there was almost no light at all:

 

This is the view up Hay Street West through the front window of the CAT bus (Central Area Transit – they don’t really have special buses for cat lovers in Perth)

By the time I got to West Perth and looked east, there was colour in the sky:

 

It struck buildings and plane trees – quite lovely.

     

During morning break, I saw the moon again:

I finished work at midday and returned to the city – all pretense of morning was gone and the sky was the peerless blue of no rain and no coolth:

 

 

I went home and went to bed!  Actually I met  a friend, then went home & went to bed 🙂  Actually – no – I took sunset photos, but that’s another post.  As is Thursday morning’s photos.  Many  more sunrise shots 🙂
