The Colors of Sunrise
Shot with a long lens from the farm-fields to the east of Shepard AB as the sun saturates the landscape with the colors of sunrise.
Your looking at the hamlet of Shepard, or at least part of it on the left side of the photo, with the Industrial east section of Calgary seen just beyond, and the Rockies on the horizon.
I had a ham friend that lived in Shepard for many years, his three ham-radio towers bristling with antennas visible for miles.
Unfortunatly Helmut is no longer with us, having passed several years ago, his home now looks like any other of the houses on the street, as the towers have been removed.
I still look for them when driving through Shepard, and have a memory of them while listening to Helmut on 7.055 MHz located on the 40 meter band.
