Monday Photo Shoot -- Autumn Sunset

















Carly at Ellipsis sponsors a photo meme called the "Monday Photo Shoot" and I am participating this time for the first time. She asked that we not go to our archives but shoot a fresh picture, even if the weather wasn't all that conducive to a good sunset shot. I got this picture on December 2, a Tuesday, and it is the best shot that was to be had all week, due to there being rain clouds above the horizon that colored the sky near the base of the sunset pink.

Extra credit was for silhouettes in the sunset, and here there are trees silhouetted.

This was fun, and I hope to participate in more Monday photo shoots in the future.

WONDERFUL! Oh my, what a beautiful picture. Is there anything nicer to see at the end of a long day? Thanks for playing darlin.

Hugs, Carly

That's really yummy - nice soft light behind those trees. Well done! Welcome to MPS - this is just my second week, so we're the new kids on the block!

I love the silhouettes against a wonderfully warm coloured sky. I am also a new kid on the block.

This is so beautiful! I can never get sick of seeing sunset/sunrise. I'm lucky to be living in a high rise apartment where I can get awesome view of sunrise and sunset from different part of my flat.

Very cool - that's quite an unusual shade of pink in your autumn sky!
