I love that pic... had it as my computer desktop background for a while. But it made me sad i wasn't there. :-)

I'll hope to see more of your photos soon! :pals:

I caught a pic of the sunset at the beach last weekend and it looked very much like that--different coast though!

16. To tell the truth, I hadn't thought much about it
until I saw your thread. Busy week, I guess.

Didn't mean to hi-jack your thread. Sorry!

19. My dear KC2!
Aw, thanks for having a look, sweetie!

I think the smoke was gone from here, now...

We had some rain the other day, and the skies are much clearer now...

I'm so glad you like them!

You know I live to share... :hug:

20. OK, Peg, can you 'splain something to me?
When I ran outside recently and aimed my camera at the sunset I was disappointed that it looked all washed out on the display, so I didn't take any. I get cross-eyed looking at all the stuff in the instruction book. Do you put your camera on a different setting for sunset photos, or do the photos look better than what you see on the display screen?

21. Well, my dear marzipanni...
I would suggest that you go ahead and take those pictures, even if they do look washed out. It's my experience that those little displays aren't very accurate...

And yes, I think the photos look better once you have them in the computer...

I just set my little point and shoot camera to Auto...

I have to admit that reading the instruction book also makes me cross-eyed!

I looked out the back door this morning and the whole sky was covered with puffs.

I'm having trouble resizing it on Photobucket, but so what - the gigantic size does make it more lovely!

(This was from last weekend.)

28. My Dear CaliforniaPeggy
You ALWAYS have awesome Sunsets...........have you ever been to Key West, or Hawaii?







"The Conservation of Energy Law—a principle which states that energy can be changed in form but that it cannot be either created or destroyed. And this is true of all energy—the energy of genius, of madness, of the heart, of the atom. And so it must be lived with. It must be controlled, channeled for good, held isolated from evil, and somehow lived with, peaceably."

Oh, thank you, sweetie!

Well, the ones I photograph are, anyway!

I've been to Hawaii......but not in a long time, long before I went digital...

I've never been to Key West...

32. My dear edbermac...
I positively HATE those phone poles!

Now, if I'd had time, I would have gone down to the beach...

No power lines there...

Alas, I had no time last night to do that...
