Sunset Colors On The Lake

It had been gray and raining for most of the past several days, but it cleared out shortly before sunset last evening.

I had been working outside once again and noticed the change of light. Walking into the house, I grabbed a camera and long lens, then headed down to the edge of the lake.

Waiting maybe five minutes for the best color of the day, I photographed the colors of the clouds and sky reflected on the water.

It turned out to be another gorgeous evening.

I was outside last evening just after sunset and saw some amazing colors in the sky. Stepping into the house, I grabbed a camera with the appropriate lens and ran back outside.

Barely a hundred feet from my back door I was able to take these photos. It was just one of those moments and I guess I was in it.

Of course it didn't hurt that I've done this sort of thing many times before. But had I waited another five minutes, all those wonderful pinks and purples would have been gone.
