Default Sunset shots

I really loved how the sky turned red and pink tonight and I made sure that I took advantage of capturing it!

I agree with Fred that you had nice foreground. The scene is indeed just too beautiful not to capture.

Thank you everyone! This was the first time I have actually gotten out and caught a sunset. I don't know why I don't do this more often, they are just so beautiful

maybe this is the inspiration you were waiting for, Josette .. these are two stunning images you have captured .. if this is a repeating scene in where you are, I recommend taking more photos of this majestic view .. very well done
