Sun Low in the Sky

Photo of the Day 11/365

This photo was taken earlier in the season and I wanted to share it. The bare trees and hills seem so small, to me, in this scene. In its original form, the photo was not what I saw or experienced when my eyes saw the scene.  In order to get the photo to be what I saw, I did some editing - and NOW it is what I saw - vibrant colors, warmth in the sun (although it was cold) and the standout clouds. Now it's a good image.

Wild Pony on Assateague

Images Exposed Daily Photo Challenge

Saturday Nature: I've had this photo for years. It is the only time I've been to the area (Chincoteague / Assateague) and have seen wild horses / ponies. They were, for the most part, wild - I'm sure some liked the treats that people leave (but shouldn't) - but they are wild and not tame. They just went where they wished, along the beaches and wherever else whey wanted. It was a good experience and a good memory.

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.
