Sunrise over Bayou St. John

Sunrise over Bayou St. John

This is the sunrise over Bayou St. John. Bayou St. John is the old route to get into New Orleans. There was a foot race today here. It was the Jackson Day Race. It is a 9k.

I was impressed at the pink and color of the sunrise and the reflection of it in the water. I hope you like it as much as I did. I realize a picture can only show a little of the true beauty but I hope it shows enough for you to get an idea of it.

I forgot to say the reason the Bayou was named St. John was John was Bienville's patron saint. Bienville was the founder of New Orleans.

What a beautiful sunrise. And the reflection equaled its beauty. I had been longing for a sunrise picture - we see so many of the sunsets. And a sunrise over the Bayou - that added to my appreciation of the picture. There was even a thrill in the name Bayou St. John. And New Orleans. Wish I could go there some time - just for the feeling it gives off.

yes, it does, Dudley. It must have been very beautiful in real life, - you were lucky to see that - the sky here is a lovely dappled or mottled shade of pink, and the reflection too.
