Sunset and Smoky Sky

Photo of the Day 175/365

I took this photo on my way home from class last night. Once again, I got lucky and was able to just stop my car in the middle of the road and take a few iPhone snaps. The traffic on my road isn't always that accomodating, but I won't complain. Despite the extreme heat we're having, the sunsets have been nice.

Cardinal on our Deck

Images Exposed Daily Photo Challenge

Tuesday Free Choice: I found this male cardinal on our deck this past weekend.  I could not get my "real" camera in time, so I used my iPhone at the best zoom I could muster and,with a little editing, this was the result. I like the photos better with myh "real" camera, but you use what you can, when you can.

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.
