About 30 Christians gathered on Dereham's Neatherd Moor for the traditional Easter Sunday sunrise service.
Ian Gardner, an elder at the town's Baptist church, led the service, which celebrated Jesus' resurrection.
It included songs, Bible readings, some drama and prayers.
Despite the poor weather forecast, the early risers got a glimpse of the sunrise over the Neatherd pond.
