Continuing in my quest to honour the small window of time where they great ball of fire rises from the sea between the St. John’s Harbour narrows, here is this morning’s orb of light and possibility.Swinging to the other end of the day, Marian enjoys the sunset near Tickle Cove after checking out the way cool sea arch.When first light wakens The Battery! This iconically colourful neighbourhood is the first you see when your cruise through the harbour narrows. It’s also the start of one of the most popular hiking trails in St. John’s, the North Head trail. It winds it way along the coast up to the top of Signal Hill.For a brief time each spring and fall, the sun rises through the St. John’s Harbour narrows bringing memorable mornings to light. I’m pleased to share this morning’s version with you. Enjoy!Sunrise in St. John’s is a busy time of day. Here the Atlantic Osprey heads out the narrows.Some landscapes make you feel big and small at the same time…TA’s Facebook Page
