It rained almost all day. And then we were treated to this as the sun went down. It looked like the sky was on fire. My sweetheart and I were driving home together, which is pretty unusual – typically he’s on his bike. So we decided to go to the river to have a better view, patiently driving through traffic hoping the sky would still be lit. And it was. So orange – so bright! We walked to the edge of the river, watching the barges float past, while flocks of whistling ducks zipped over us, heading off to roost somewhere, or perhaps migrating through the night. My Facebook news feed is full of pics of this sunset – we weren’t the only ones who stopped to admire it! Photos never quite do sunsets justice, but hope you enjoy anyway!
Hi, I’m Carla.
I try to pay attention. I'm always learning something new. I get excited about little things. I live in an interesting place. Here's where I share my musings. Glad you've stopped by!Top Posts

Lovely shot
Thank you!
So pretty! We had the same thing here – I went out to feed our pigeons and was so gratefuly that I got to see the gorgeous purple sunset through our woods. Had to remind myself of the saying, “Pink sky in the morning, sailor warning. Pink sky at night, sailor delight.”
My mom taught me that saying too – I think the same thing when I see a bright sunset or sunrise!
Beautiful colors Carla.
Thank you!
From one sunset afficianado to another, Thank You. I find myself continually posting them on my blog also, but not even fantastically beautiful ones like this one, any little bit of color and variety seems to please me;] I never get tired of seeing them.
I know. What a beautiful, completely free, daily experience!
Glad you enjoyed!
