Sunrise and Sunsets

[yourlibrarian]

It was actually about 7 AM several weeks ago when I took this so it wasn't anywhere near sunrise. But I noticed that while it stays light longer now, that overcast days tended to have a slow spread of sunshine in the morning. Anyway, made for some great colors and shadows.



A broader shot of the same view.



For a few nights we were seeing a diagonal line going across the horizon during sunset. In closer views it looks like a fiery slash across the sky.



Another nice contrast in the sky.



This was last night's sunset. It had some pretty colors and designs.

It amazes me how different a sunset can look from day to day even though I've seen untold numbers of them in my life.

I love sunrises and sunsets!

I'm rarely around for a sunrise but we're in a good position to see both.

Yes, the colors, especially of the first, looks like a liquid.

The top picture looks like a Tonalist study; the fifth has the warm translucence of a Mexican fire opal.

[yourlibrarian]

Yes, the colors really get to me.
