Default happy to watch the sun going down

happy to watch the sun going down

watch the sun go down

Where driftwood collides with blind boats on the water, we are dust, we are light before dark,
and I'm happy to watch the sun going down

This is great. For a sunset a rather different colour, unusual may be but I really like it.

You certainly capture things differently Steve - lovely sunset, soft and very warm colours and sets the scene perfectly. Cheers, Bernz

Beautiful sunset my friend. I wish I lived by water like that.

Spectacular clouds colored by our friend Mr. Sun. Captured so beautifully captured by Mr. Beachcomber. Very nicely done my friend.

With sunsets like that, I'd be happy to do nothing more than watch them go down. Splendid image, Steve.

excellent shot as always Steve - I think it is quite rare to be able to shoot an image with such a low horizon successfully but you seem to have judged the cloud formations would let you get away with it and even more

lovely colours - we have been getting amazing sunsets here as well but I keep missing the opportunity - I might have to take my old point & shoot on the train to see if I can catch one this week
