Dawn Mist Over Tbilisi Butte at First Light in near Old Town, Tbilisi

Dawn Mist Over Tbilisi Butte at First Light

by Colleen Abbott

Thick white mist rests on the valley floor near Old Town, Tbilisi, obscuring the ground below while a towering butte rises sharply into the pale sky. The first rays of sunrise strike the upper ridges of the red sandstone, painting them in soft orange and gold hues that contrast with the cool gray shadows in the crevices. Below, the ancient stone walls of the city emerge faintly through the fog, their terracotta roofs barely visible. The scene shows the vertical scale of the geologic formation against the horizontal spread of the morning haze. A sharp shadow from the butte's peak falls across the swirling vapor, marking the precise angle of the rising sun.
