| Arctic sea smoke is visible on the ocean just after dawn December 24, 2022, Bethany Beach, Delaware. |
Among the many perks of this arrangement is winter sunrises over the ocean.
I'm an early riser, and the sun comes up late just a week after the winter solstice, so I get a great view of the dawn breaking over the ocean. It's always different, and always sublime.
The videos, seen below at the bottom of this post, don't do it justice, but are certainly worth watching. (The only problem with them is the sound quality is iffy, oh well).
The videos are still relaxing, so if you want a moment of relaxation, watch 'em.
The first video was taken Christmas Eve morning, when the East Coast was still in the throes of that Arctic outbreak and aftereffects of that big bomb cyclone.

| Sunrise, Bethany Beach, Delaware, December 27, 2022 |
Anyway, as the sun rose that morning, the ocean simmered with Arctic sea smoke, sort of giving me a Lake Superior lakefront in Duluth vibe.
I enjoyed the sunrises in subsequent mornings, of course. Yesterday, December 27, was much warmer (Upper 20s!) so it was even easier to enjoy the early morning dawn.
There were a few more clouds in the sky than on previous mornings, which made the whole thing more interesting. A sharp red line appeared on the horizon well before sunrise. Then the clouds gradually filled with pastel colors. Just such an awesome sight.
I'm here for two more mornings.We'll see what those dawns bring!
First video, on December 24. Click on this link if you don't see the image of the video, or click on image below. And underneath that is the second video.
