Early morning pictures


Early morning view from my balcony.The small tanker on the Danish side of Øresund is the OW Scandinavia.

An old Swedish proverb says "morning hour has gold in its mouth". The English equivalent is "the early bird catches the worm", which perhaps does not sound so good in connection with this early morning picture, shot at about 5.45 this morning.

The English version is probably more suitable for the picture below, also shot before 6 A.M. this morning:

Blackbird early in the morning - still without the worm.
