Sunset and Field Grass

Photo of the Day 218/366 

Last evening, I noted with some interest, the sky getting redder and redder near the horizon. I was a good 20 minutes before sunset, so I took to walking a little farther than normal. I wandered into the fields near me to try to see what I could make with the setting sun. I found this composition! The grasses were lit by the clouds overhead and the sky was lit with the setting sun - it made for a great combination.

Shelf Clouds over the Dunes

This photo was taken in Cape May some years ago. We were exploring at Cape May Point and directly behind me is the "concrete ship" in the water. I had been looking at that ship when I noticed the coming (or receding) storm. The shelf cloud looked almost monstrous over the sand dunes and sea grass.

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.
