These 4 Incredible Capitol Photos Taken Over 43 Minutes Show the Colors of the Sunrise

I am sure you can tell by the photos we have shared that I have watched and enjoyed a lot of sunrises. Most of them (even the spectacular ones) are pretty much a one color event.  Once in a great while there is a full spectrum of colors in a sunrise. This one for instance. While sitting there enjoying it I was just about jumping out of my shoes knowing what a rare thing I was seeing (and in amazement that I had the whole place to myself). Mark Baird BTW the red image at 6:36am is actually the first photo I shared with you.

Since December of 2013 PJ Lifestyle has been collecting sunrise and sunset photos from contributors, readers, and Instagram. Now we’re going to begin an effort to organize the ongoing collection. New goals:

1. Collect a sunrise from every state in the union.

2. Collect a sunset from as many countries around the world as possible.

3. After getting all 50 states’ sunrises then switch to collecting their sunsets and begin the global sunrises collection.

Updated April 2014: 4. The extraordinary submissions of Mark Baird have inspired a new collection of photographs devoted specifically to our nation’s capital. We’re going to try and organize fantastic sunrise and sunset photos from all the different monuments and scenic views.
