Simple Sunset through the Pines

Photo of the Day 28/365

This photo was taken two days ago on a "sunset walk". The sun had just about fallen behind the far trees when I spied it between these two pine trees. I noted the snow in the foreground and the blue sky above fading into the golden glow of the sunset. I liked the layers of tones and colors and the "peek-a-boo" view of the setting sun. A nice way to end the day.

Tuesday Free Choice: This photo has been sitting in my archives for years. I've always like the "action" of the lightning inside the ball going out to meet the finger (my son's finger and he's now 31). We were at a science museum and I managed to get this. I've kept it and not posted it before, but it is, today, my choice.

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.
