Wow, the colors in that second shot are just amazing. I have a feeling we get sunrises like that quite a bit here where I work as the sun comes up over Lake Huron. The problem is, my office window faces west, not east, so I rarely get to see them unless I leave my office and take a stroll. More often than not, I forget to do just that!
I am sure you do get nice sunrises there, but cant you convince the boss that IT professionals are far more productive when they have an office with an east facing Window :)
I wish!
