Photography is lots of fun. With Caroline’s sunrise photo and health challenge we have been chasing the sun and playing with morning light, taking interesting photos and having fun with the sun in our images. Today I am thinking: “Is the sun playing with me?” I am sure that last few days the sun is making fun of me. Two days ago I did lovely preparation for my morning photoshoot of sunrise in Dublin city, but the sun decided to hide yesterday morning. There was also heavy rain, so I couldn’t go anywhere. Few hours later, the sun showed up and we had lovely sunny day in Dublin yesterday. Same thing happened today, so it makes me laugh. How was your morning today? Did you have the chance to play with the morning sun light and got some nice morning photos ? Or is the sun making fun of you too?

Is photography fun for you too? Let me know about your little obsessions, trophies, photos that you took during your morning walks. I love reading articles from people who joined Caroline’s sunrise photo and health challenge. I am happy to read that during morning walks to get sunrise photo someone spotted little animals, butterflies or got some little surprise from the nature. Have a look how much fun photography can be, read about blogger Nezel and what happened to her during her morning walk: (https://purposivewriter.wordpress.com/2016/08/13/my-most-awesome-encounter-with-a-butterfly/ )
I have managed to involved my kids in my sunrise and health challenge few times and take them to my morning walk with me. We have got amazing memories and beautiful pictures. I have lots of material to write about, so I hope I will publish more articles soon. One of the best morning photoshoots with my kids that I wrote about is : Wild mushrooms picking early in the morning. Day 10 Caroline’s sunrise photo and health challenge
Do you know the category on my blog called “Chasing birds with camera”? I am having lots of fun, running after birds with my camera. With my sunrise and health challenge I added new habit to my mornings. When I finish my morning photoshoot of sunrise I start looking for birds and take some pictures of them while the sun is still making the morning magic. My favorite photos of birds so far are in article: Chasing birds with camera part 6: Swan watching sunrise in Prague

Thanks Caroline for the link! You’re so right. I did enjoy my morning walks searching for the area where the sun shines best. And also as to where the light falls. I did relate with you. 🙂

When the sun don’t show we just make some walking, some exercise, something healthy every day and use old pictures for the blog post to write about it. It is a health challenge as well, so its more than just taking a sunrise photo. Not everyday is beautiful sunrise in the morning. It has been raining in Dublin for many days in the morning, so sunny mornings are rare here. For me, it can be sad and dificult to see many rainy days, but when the sun finally show up in the morning and I will get some nice photo, it will be big celebration 🙂

First of all how should I address you…Petra or Caroline?
I can understand that rainy days tend to be gloomy. Out here we mostly get sun through out the year except these 1 or 2 months. Out here we get rains only after long spell of dry and hot summer. So rains are cherished here. did you have a look at this new post of mine? I took this nature walk on this sunday morning.
