The Daily Joe

Sunset Glow and Streaky Clouds Photo of the Day 218/365 Two evenings ago, I took a walk to catch the sunset. I did, indeed, catch a number of shots of the setting sun. However, when I was all done, I was in our yard, after the sunset, and noted the beautiful colors in the sky after the sunset. I think the photo represented those colors. I'll post photos of the sunset later.

Grand Drive to the Farm House Photo of the Day 217/365   I went for long walk with my youngest yesterday - much longer than normal. She wanted to talk about things and I obliged. At the far end of our walk,  I saw this driveway entrance. I'd seen it before, but always while driving. As I was walking, I could see the farm house at the end of the drive and decided to see if I could capture it. This was the result.

Hazy Sunset at the Farm Photo of the Day 216/365   This photo was actually taken earlier in the summer but other photos overtook it. It has waited in my camera roll since I took it. I like it but other photos just seemed to fit the bill better at the time. I like the warm golden sky and the sharp outline of the farm buildings. It makes a nice farm photo.

Quiet Tree-Lined Drive Photo of the Day 215/365 I took a drive late last week, hoping to get to a nice spot to take photos. On the way, I drove down this road and was able to take a photo. There was no traffic, so I was able to get a good photo of the road. It is indeed a quiet place. Unfortunately, I found out that there would be construction in the near future, and once I turned the corner, there were people everywhere, getting into the creek to do some swimming, wading, and tubing.

Sun Sinking into the Clouds Photo of the Day 214/365 Earlier this week, I had the chance to get a sunset walk in and get some great shots. Initially, I didn't think there would be a chance, but the clouds opened for a period of rain and storms.  I literally ran out and did my best to get what photos I could before the clouds came back. For this one, I zoomed in as far as I could to capture the sun itself. I really like the way the sun almost seems to be settling into the softness of the clouds.

Farm Past the Fence  Photo of the Day 213/365   While out on a long walk with my youngest, I spied this farm. It was almost obscured by the summer foliage but I managed to get a nice shot of the barn with the fence, framed by the leaves. I like the summery feel of the photo and the calm of the bucolic scene.
