SkyWatch ~ Sunset Changes

The golden promise

darkens into orange,

casting a smoky reflection in the dam

and moments later fades into quite different shades

yet still some colour lingers to set off the windmill . . .

only to pale into an afterglow

as the sky mourns the loss of yet another day .

All photos enlarge as always.

With many thanks to the great folks at SkyWatch who host this meme.

SkyWatch ~ Yet Another Sunset

Lately I have been good about going for my constitutional

walk up out road to the top of the hill so that you now get

a different view of my sunsets.

After an inauspicious start

the colours started emerging as I passed the windmill

and strengthened to the point that I ended taking 27 shots

in all before it was too dark for more.

The colours over Moon Hill were amazing

changing from minute to minute.

When I got to the top of our road, there was just a flash of red

left on the horizon,

and yet when I zoomed into the yellow streak, it still was

quite spectacular.

Turning towards home, the NE looked rather nice as well.

All my little wonders enlarge if you feel like it.
