Sunset Sky over the Barn

Photo of the Day 194/366

I shot this photo earlier this week. We were out for a drive to get out of the house after a rough day. I didn't know where we were going - it was the wife's choice - but the company, the sunset and the local scenery made the trip worth it. I took more than a few of this farm, but really liked how this one turned out with the corn field and brilliant sky.

I've had this photo for more than two decades. Despite it's very plain appearance, I remember my place, my mood, and my thoughts when I took this photo.  I was in San Francisco for the first time on a business trip and had arrived the previous day. I was there alone and had time to burn so I walked to the event venue and noticed how few people there were and did some exploring. I looked down from one overhang and noticed this tree branch. It reached out over the concrete sidewalk but was below my position. I remember thinking how "zen" this looked.  I still think that.

Sunset and Field Grass Photo of the Day 335/365 I took this photo over the Thanksgiving Holiday (here in the states). I was out for a very short sunset walk. I really wanted to catch the sunset itself, this time, so I left a little early. In reality, I left a little too early and it was a little cold, but I managed to hold and and try to get some good images. I really like how this one came out. I like the sunshine hitting the grass and the streaming clouds. It looks alot warmer than it was.

Covered Bridge in the Morning Snow Photo of the Day 339/365 I took this photo two days ago on the way to work. The snow had fallen, our first, measurable snow, and it was pretty cold. I found a spot I could pull over, just onto our campus, and took a few photos before I became too cold. I've always liked this bridge and captured it in all seasons - but I think the winter time is the prettiest time to photograph it - and the morning light made it even better.

Just Before Sunrise on the Farm Photo of the Day 335/365 I tookthis photo yesterday monring on the way to work. The pre-dawn sky was just so pretty that I had to stop at a few of my "pretty spots" to take a few photos. I've posted shots from here before, but I wanted a wider view when I saw how wide the colors had spread across the horizon. I feel that this is a good representation (no edits) of what I saw then.
