Sunset Fire with Trees and Hills

Photo of the Day 99/365

I took this photo sometime over the past couple of weeks. The sunsets, when they came, were hot and fast-changing. I remember racking my camera out to the longest zoom I could. I wanted to get the "ball of fire" of the sun. The upside, is that when I did that, the camera underexposed and the sky changed with brilliant oranges, golds, and purples. Who could resist that kind of a shot.

Wednesday Design: This photo was taken, as I recall, at Stanford University almost 20 years go. I was on a business trip and were were touring around and decided to stop there. I took a number of very memorable shots (to me) and I will always remember how beautiful the architecture and, in general, the campus was.

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.
