Flaring Sunset Sky

Photo of the Day 358/366

This photo was taken early this year. I wasn't sure it would be what I wanted - the camera rarely captures what my eye sees. So I did some editing and the sky came alive to be what I wanted. The sky appears to convey much more warmth than it was in real life - but it was a beautiful sky.

Cold Day at the Lake

Monday Monochrome: This photo was taken a few years ago. I had ventured out to our local lake and was hiking the Lakeside Trail. I knew this point of land was there and it was one of my goals. When I got there, the windw was blowing and it was bitterly cold. There was no one else hiking or walking that day - and I probably shouldn't have been, but the scene was worth it.

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.
