No shadow without light during April 2020: I might be disabled thanks to my shoulder injury, but the weather is in favour for my sunup project. 27 out of 30 days start with a motley assortment of colours and April 19 is no exception to this rule.

Detecting more of the Ostpark: They built a hill with a view. For no other purpose than having that view. There is not much to be seen, but still – not the worst place to be around sunrise, even better when part of the early morning run.

Detecting new areas in my surrounding, such as: Ostpark. Very urban.

April 16, 2020. Artificial Times, Artificial Lake, Real Sunrise

Another run, another sun(rise). Gives you energy for the day!

Early Morning Run on April 15

Another gap (April 13 with no wide range of splendid pictures) brings us to April 14: all silent, only parked cars indicate that people might be around. The lake lies abandoned,  the air is cold and the wind is cloudy. And then, tiny rays of light shine trhough.

Isar. Munich. Did I mention that it has such a wonderful flair around sunrise that I went there twice during April 2020??

Isar: April 12, 2020

Isar. The river dividing Munich into East and West, cutting a diagonal into the city map. And so charming around 6 a.m. that I had to go there twice in April.

Retrospective on a cloudless sunrise on April 10, 2020. An empty sky requires different timing: Take pictures of the preferred spot of the day 15-20 minutes before the sun crosses the horizon line. Typical colours are blue and velvet / pale pink (cloudless, early) compared to vibrant pink and orange (directly after sunup with the right portion of reflecting clouds). I definitely built up non-economic knowledge.

Construction Time Again

April 9 with a guiding moon during my early morning run. Ever since, the melody of Sinatra’s “Fly me to the Moon” keeps on repeating itself in my head.

Those who can count might have noticed that No. 7 has no B-side. In fact, the material collected along the way was okay for an A-Side (like: the single that might make it to the Billboard charts), but nothing can be added on the B-Side. Empty vinyl, that would be it. So, here comes another day and at least April 8 has been full of early morning impressions, visible in today’s B-Side pic.
