Default The final sunsets.. at least for now

Hi all, these are from the same sunset I've shared over the last week or so. Hope you like them. Isn't the mountain just grand and lovely?

From DPS


I thought these trees were a treat silhouetted against the sky... almost gave me goosebumps.

Very grand indeed Fred, both are great! I think they are my faves out of all that you have presented so far. Especially the 2nd shot! Love the trees shilouetted against the bright colorful backdrop.

Thank you Duane. As often happens, we were hurriedly on our way home as it was getting dark. We had tarried for awhile as I shot the other images and as we walked home this scene unfolded before me. I just could not pass it up.

Beautifully captured! The colors are so rich and vibrant. I've seen purple in the sunsets before but not quite like these. TFS.
