Default Honk if you love sunsets
Ok, so it's been a while since I've posted anything, but I have good news: I finally saved enough for my first DSLR, a gently used 40D! Here is the first landscape that I've been able to shoot with it. Everyday, I've been racing home from work to try to get to the park before sunset, and I finally was successful. I didn't even get a speeding ticket! Thanks for looking!

Geese at Sunset

What a wonderful sunset photo! Worth racing home for. Congrats on the new camera -- looks like you're having a great time with it. Will look forward to more sunsets as the days lengthen and you don't have to risk a speeding ticket!
