Volcanic Sunset

The sunset wasn't spectacular but there was a definite unusual shade of green, which we were warned might be the case. This picture was taken about 30 minutes after the sun went down.

Yet Another Sunset

What is it about sunsets? They only last a matter of minutes but its probably the most photographed time of day. My excuse, as if I need one, is that this is the first sunset we have seen for about a month!

And I managed to combine it with this overflying Mississippi Air National Guard Boeing KC-135 tanker (the military equivalent of the Boeing 707) , with the last vestiges of the suns rays illuminating the starboard side. Amazingly the pictured aircraft was built in 1957!

Another Sunset

The sky cleared in the early evening today and we were treated to a spectacular sunset...so it was time for some more photos!

Sunset

I do like to take photo's at sunset. The colours always seem that much more richer and vibrant than at sunrise. And generally I am awake when the sun sets, but not necessarily when it rises, particularly during the Summer months! So here are a couple of photo's I have taken recently.
