Pink, yellow and blue sunrise

I went out for my early morning walk today in the usual fashion. It was around six in the morning and the air was still pleasantly cool. I put on a pink jacket and jeans (both my jogging pants are still in the wash), put on my headphones and started to play podcasts from Frenchpod (I'm trying to learn French.)

Today, I was lucky enough to witness a particularly beautiful sunrise. What stood out most to me was the colors (Typical thing for me to say. I'm a color freak. Have been ever since my first, huge box of Crayolas.) I loved the way the soft blue (almost periwinkle) of the sky was stained by the yellow light of the sun. Somehow, as these two colors met, the clouds ended up stained in pink and purple as well.I took some photos too:

 

The colors are a bit darker I think because my cellphone automatically adjusts contrast based on the lightest and the darkest hues. I promise, it was more wonderful in person. So wonderful, in fact, that I think I don't think I remember a single word in French after all that. I was way too absorbed with looking at the sky and taking pictures.
Incidentally, the pictures remind me of the coloring choices and style of one of my favorite artists, Jake Probelski aka OchreJelly.
Case in point:

See the yellows, the pinks, the blues and the purples? I didn't realize that he used such sunrise-y colors until now. I think I'm going to paint something using this color scheme one day.
In the meantime, someone got jealous because I was staring too much at the sun:

Don't worry, moon. You're beautiful too. :)
