Setting Sun over the Grassy Field

Photo of the Day 233/366

 

 

I took this photo last weekend. The sky was changing very rapidly. When I arrived at my neighbor's farm, this show was one of the first ones I took. The sunlight was skating off of the grass in the field and the sky was a golden with a few spots of blue. The sun was about to come out of a cloud. Above were storm clouds and to the north were anvil clouds portending to the stronger storms there. But here, things were tranquil enough to get some nice shots.

Jeep at the Ice Cream Shop

Images Exposed Daily Photo Challenge

Tuesday Daily Life:  This photo was taken one our last trip to Maine. We had been walking around a town which we had drive through but never stopped at. We were exploring and I looked across a side street and saw this quaint ice cream shop with a brightly colored Jeep parked in front. I saw a juxtaposition between the old style brick home (turned into an ice cream shop) and the bright, modern Jeep. It just struck a note with me.

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.
