Flaring Sunset Clouds throught the Trees Photo of the Day 223/365 Just when I was leaving my son's home this past weekend, I noticed that I had missed the sunset, but I could still see lots of color in the sky. I took a brief walk to get out from under the local power lines. I did my best to zoom in and capture what remained of the sunset clouds and the looked like they were flaring up - almost like little flames coming from behind the trees.

Sunset Sky Through the Clearing Phot of the Day 222/365 I took this photo two evenings ago. I was on my way home from my son's home when I saw the sun setting but knew I would miss it. However, on my way, I found a clearing onto a field and pulled over to try to grab a shot. It was a little darker than I would have prefered, but I think this came out well.

Misty Morning Road Photo of the Day 221/365 Yesterday morning, the mist was thick and the sun way doing its best to shine through and burn off the mist, but I was early. I had pulled off and took a number of the scenery around this farm. However, when I was walking back to my car, I saw this scene - a road I travel almost every day, but the mist and faint yellow of the morning light made it almost magical rather than mundane.

Morning Sky on Campus Photo of the Day 220/365 The morning skies just now are very surprising to me. I don't know if it's the smoke from far away or if it's just the time, of year, but the morning skies have been amazing. I took this photo yesterday morning when I got out of my car at work. The sky was just too pretty not to try to get a shot. I just managed to get a shot between buildings yet still include some of our wonderful old trees - well some of them are old....

Pretty Morning Sky Photo of the Day 219/365 The seasons are starting their turn so that morning skies are now getting to the point where they can be photographed without looking like mid-day. I was on my way to work yesterday morning when I saw the sun just hiddden by some morning clouds. I stopped at a local tree farm and grabbed a few photos with my phone and this was the best one. Soon, fall will be here and I'll take more sunrises than sunsets....

Predawn Sky over the Pines Photo of the Day 218/365 This photo was taken earlier in the year as I was on an early trip to work. The sky was very pretty and the colors in the clouds was just magnificent. i had to try to get the photo with the pines in the front. I tried my best to hide the power tower behind one of the pines but sometimes, they can't be avoided.

Early Evening Sky over the Farm Photo of the Day 217/365 This photo was taken a few weeks ago while out on a drive with my wife. We were out on some side road and the sky was magnificent and changing second to second. I asked my wife (who was driving) to slow down when I saw this farm. The sun had already set, but the skies were colorful but it was getting dark. With just a little editing (straightening, cropping and brightening), it is now, just as I saw the scene.
