Sunset - a day early unfortunately
One evening last week I went up the fields behind our house hoping to get a picture of the blood red sunsets we sometimes get.
Up at the bench (told you I'd manage a bench sooner or later) you're just high enough to get a good view of the western sky.
Anyway - without having too long to hang about - this is about as good as it got that evening.
Then, the very next day when I had no time to get up to the bench - the sky was kind enough to really rub it in and remind me (through a gap in the roofs) just what I was missing

WOW!!! First of all fantastic bench
What a view
I am envious of where you live! It always looks gorgeous.
The first sunsets are stunning, but the red in the last one, is awesome. I have never seen the sky that red. Does it happen a lot?
All three are great shots.
