 Sunset at the Wedding Venue

Photo of the Day 246/366

 

This was taken last evening. I was shooting a wedding and the bride and groom wanted their photo taken as sunset - to the point that we rearranged the events at the reception to allow this to happen. After the shooting (of the sunset photo) was done, I nabbed a couple of shots on my iPhone. This was likely my last wedding as "the" photographer. I enjoyed it but the body doesn't want to keep up with mental demands.

Stormy Afternoon at the Lake

Monday Monochrome:  The sunset tried to come in by the storm clouds were faster. The clouds swept over the lake and I switched to monochrome to try to capture the darkening mood of the clouds. I really liked the reflections of the remaining sunlight on the water along with the darkness and shades of gray. The total blackness of the hills and trees add a separation of the textures. It works for me.

    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.

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.

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.
