Moonset at Sunrise: A Glow of Gold, Blue, Pink

Moonset, at sunrise.

From my window looking west, the sky glows pink as the rolling earth slides up and away from February's shimmering Full Snow Moon. Across the hall, hoar-frosted trees and snow in the east burn under a dawn fireball.

A golden sunrise. A  glittering pink moon.

Just before 8 a.m. facing west, the setting moon is bright pink coin in the sky. © SB

What are these? Images of the moon setting in the glow of sunrise, and the glow of sunrise itself less than 10 minutes later on an icy winter morning.
