Default When You Come To The End Of A Perfect Day.....

We had spent a wonderfully happy day with family and friends and had travelled the hour and a half trip home, prepared the evening meal, and walked out on to the front patio to be greeted by this beautiful sunset. Thought it was well worth sharing with you all.

Hi Pauline. I've been away from here for a couple of days mostly resting up so sorry if i missed a few of your posts, but this morning I open this one up and I'm hit with a great big WOW!!!!! Oh Pauline I'm so glad I never missed this one. This is outstanding, the colours of the setting sun and the silhoutte are so so beautiful. This is indeed the end to a perfect day.
Sorry this is belated but..... Happy Birthday for yesterday. I hope you had a great day.
hugs
Dave.

Thankyou Michael. This one didn't have any treatment bar the fact that I cropped the tip of a TV aerial out, but the rest was just zoomed in on with the camera, but no other interference at all. I aim to have everything as nature presents it where possible, but sometimes nature just doesn't want to play lol. We are very lucky in that the sunsets can normally be seen from our front door and are usually very beautiful.

Wonderful shot Pauline. I would add only two words to the end of your title, "...........give thanks". An enjoyable view on which to end my perfect day. Thanks. PAUL
