Break of dawn

It’s probably difficult to tell what this is, without reading the description?
Ja, det er nok svært umiddelbart at se, hvad det skal forestille uden at læse teksten?
 
 
Tuesday the 27th of March, a week ago today,  the sky looked like this from the bedroom window. The sun was just surfacing, actually not as much as here, and the sky was neither grey nor pale blue yet, it was kind of like China Glaze Sea Spray, that I used for the base – not quite, but close enough. The base of the clouds caught the light of the rising sun, and because they were so dark grey the sun reflected red-ish and made them look stunningly gradient red mixed with dark grey. Of course it was much more beautiful IRL, I should have taken a photo, but when I realized that, it was too late…
I used several colors and sponged them on, some I mixed, and I forgot to make a note of which I used.
Tirsdag den 27. marts, for en uge siden i dag, så himlen sådan ud, da jeg lidt i syv trak gardinet til side i soveværelset. Solen var lige ved at bryde fri i horisonten, faktisk ikke så meget som solen på neglene, og himlen var hverken grå eller bleg blå, den mindede om China Glaze Sea Spray, som jeg brugte til bundfarve – ikke helt, men næsten. Skyernes underside blev oplyst af solen, og fordi de varierede i farve mellem meget mørk grå til hvid, reflekterede solens stråler rødligt og gav dem en helt fantastisk rødlig gradueret farve blandet med helt mørkegrå. Det var naturligvis meget smukkere i virkeligheden, men da jeg kom i tanke om at tage et billede var det for sent…
Jeg brugte flere forskellige farver (som jeg glemte at notere), nogle blandede jeg selv, og jeg duppede dem på med et lille stykke makeup svamp.
