Sunset at the Dock

 

Yesterday was a mostly clouds day and while I got some photos while running around, visiting some small port towns, none were spectacular. At the end of the day, I suggested we go for a ride to see the sunsets in the coves around us. I found this one just at sunset with the dock and the boats in for the night. My fave.

Lupines in Bloom

The lupines are in bloom everywhere, as are lilacs, flags and other flowers that are way past bloom in the mid-Atlantic. I'm really enjoying seeing them again. The purple of the lupines is my favorite color (as are most of the lilacs) which doesn't hurt. These were taken behind the museum at the Somesville Bridge.

Red Tinged Clouds over the Trees Photo of the Day 345/366 I took the photo last week on the way home. It was a wonderful sunset sky and I couldn't pass up taking a number of shots while it was available. These clouds with the red edges from the setting sun were a wonderful sight over these trees just behind the rolling field in the foreground. A nice evening sky for sure.

    Photo of the Day 307/365  Autumn Colors on Display by the Creek This photo was taken last weekend on our mini-vacation. We were on our way home and happened to find a pull-off - in the rain - and I took some photos by this creek. The colors just seemed to pop in the damp drizzly weather but the camera couldn't quite capture the bright colors. I didn't want to over-edit it but this is close to what I experienced that moment.

Tracks into the Sunset Photo of the Day 342/366 This photo was taken last evening on the way home from work. I took a number of photos and could not quite get the sun peeking through  the clouds. This is the closest I got. I love the colors in the sky and the reflections in the railroad tracks. I've taken this scene before, but it always makes me think of life moving on and on, rolling into the sunset of life - as I get older, those thoughts become more frequent.
