Photo of the Day 232/365

At the Very End of  the Sunset



This photo was taken yesterday at the end of the day.  The sky was clear right up until sunset. I really didn't have high hopes for any photo. Nature always surprises me with its beauty. The light clouds were there, the sun rays casting shadows in sky and the sun just dipping behind a lone tree.  The glow of the sun on the clouds - it was beautiful.

Sunday Nature

On a clear day, sometimes the clouds can form on the horizon and appear to be looming storms.  These clouds were not storm clouds - they may have been the leading edge of a weather front, but no rain came from them. They just floated by and minded their own business. I used monochrome to emphasize the blue sky and the puffy clouds.

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.
