Lake Norman Sunrise in the fall 2009

 

The weather has been perfect ever since the heavy rain and winds left our Lake Norman area late last week.  This morning I looked out to see a beautiful sunrise so I decided to grab my camera and try to capture it for my blog readers. 

Like many Lake Norman sunrises, the water was absolutely still creating a visual mirror image of everything in view.  There was a mystical layer of fog hovering  just above the surface.  It was hard to believe that some miles away it was a typical Monday morning with the I-77  filling up with commuters.  This is why so many of us love living on Lake Norman.

We write a lot about the gorgeous sunsets here on Lake Norman, and for good reason, they can be spectacular.  I have a wonderful waterfront listing that faces due West.  This is what my sellers get to enjoy every evening:

But, don't ever underestimate the beauty of a sunrise when considering a waterfront home. Whether a sunset or a sunrise, the beauty that surrounds life in Lake Norman never ceases to amaze those of us who are lucky enough to live here!

Very beautiful scenes Diane. I love lakes because I don't worry so much about sharks! I'd love to live in a houseboat on Lake Norman.

MAgnificent, Diane. Sunrise and sunset photos are my favorites. I could almost do just a blog about them alone.
