A Hole in the Clouds at Sunset

Photo of the Day 122/365

We had on-and-off rain during most of the afternoon, so I had little hope for a sunset. However, as the time approached, I saw that there was a brightening in the sky and a bit of color. I decided to go for my normal "sunset walk", and to see what I could capture. Initially, the sun came through the hole in the clouds, but after it went behind, this view came to be, and I was lucky enough to capture it.

Lots of Purple Sage

Images Exposed Daily Photo Challenge

Saturday Colors: Yesterday, my wife and I went to visit a greenhouse and market in a neighboring county, and I took my camera with me. In this relatively small greenhouse, I had many opportunities to capture colors, but purple is my favorite color. These sage plants caught my eye and they had a large number of these plants, so I decided to get this shot. I like it, and love the color.

Sunset and Field Grass Photo of the Day 335/365 I took this photo over the Thanksgiving Holiday (here in the states). I was out for a very short sunset walk. I really wanted to catch the sunset itself, this time, so I left a little early. In reality, I left a little too early and it was a little cold, but I managed to hold and and try to get some good images. I really like how this one came out. I like the sunshine hitting the grass and the streaming clouds. It looks alot warmer than it was.

Reds in the Sky before the Dawn Photo of the Day 24/365 I had been hoping for a nice sunrise yesterday morning but there was a huge sweeping bank of clouds right where the sunrise would be. But as I looked closer, I saw the pinds and reds at the horizon and thought that if I cold make them the focus, I could get a good photo. I tried to frame that part of the sky with a nearby tree and I think I got what I wanted.

 Streamers in the Dawn Sky Photo of the Day 241/365 I found this scene on the way to work yesterday morning. As the days move on in the year, the sun rises earlier and earlier. The sun was actually higher in the sky than I'd like for a sunrise photo, but I zoomed out to the widest setting I had so that the sun would appear lower in the sky, and the streaming clouds would reach up into the blue. I really like how this image came out!
