2. That is purtty!

The sun went down here a long time ago. Almost time for bed. I long for the days when the sun was just going down here at this time. I hate winter.

8. I hear that, my dear Tobin...It's almost 9 PM for you.

Our days are very slowly getting a bit longer......I love the longer ones of summer...

Oh, and thank you!

5. Red sky at night, sailors delight.

Red sky at night, sailors delight.
When we see a red sky at night, this means that the setting sun is sending its light through a high concentration of dust particles. This usually indicates high pressure and stable air coming in from the west. Basically good weather will follow.

Red sky in morning, sailor’s warning.
A red sunrise reflects the dust particles of a system that has just passed from the west. This indicates that a storm system may be moving to the east. If the morning sky is a deep fiery red, it means a high water content in the atmosphere. So, rain is on its way.

And now I know.

12. My youngest fusses when we go to Florida because I always take pics of sunsets

No two are the same I tell her.

But any sunset is spectacular when you live in Cleveland.

Nice shots.

I've seen some pretty ones in Ohio...

Thanks for enjoying mine!

19. Those are just beautiful, Peggy!

I live in a semi-rural area in NE Illinois. I think I'm real lucky that I get to see both beautiful sunrises and sunsets.

Starting on Nov. 1 of 2012, I started getting up every morning and taking a sunrise picture over the lake that's in the middle of my town. I hope to put them all together into a slide show/movie when I'm done on Nov. 1, 2013. I need to start wearing my glasses when I go out there, LOL! Here is this mornings:

20. Wow, that's lovely!

23. You missed a great presentation at my camera club last night.

This guy Joe Lefevre just started shooting night shots of the Milky Way. This is a still that he shot at a 30 sec exposure. He then shot over 300 30 sec exposures and put them into a 15 second QuickTime movie. I wish he had that on his website, people were gasping how beautiful it was.

24. Since I don't live in New York, missing it was inevitable, alas!

Thanks for the link. This picture above is glorious!
