Photo of the Day 192/365

Pretty Summer Sunset 


 

The family went for a walk the other night, just to get some fresh air. We tried to wait until closer to sunset to enjoy the cooler air and to hopefully catch a sunset. When we went out, the clouds had obscured most of the western sky but they seemed to part and I captured this view of a pretty summer sunset over the trees of the neighborhood. The small bands of blue above the tinges of red and orange made this particular shot special for me.

Tuesday: Art

I took this photo while waiting for my wife (the church Administrative Assistant) while she did some work in the office. I used a "Lensbaby" lens and shot in monochrome. I tried to capture the repeating shapes and the way the light streamed across the empty seats.

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.
