It's SunThursday once again... naturally... :)

avatar

It's been awhile since I used this tag, but... old habits die hard...
So here we go again!
🌞

This #SunThursday initiative was 'born' quite awhile ago on another platform, created by an old friend, @uwelang

And now, it's great to see its re-birth here, with a breath of fresh air
Like a phoenix rising from a previous life...

How appropriate too that sunsets are often likened to flames in the sky...

For those interested in this contest...
Check this out!

Sunset skies
There was rain a little earlier...
So the clouds hung around, adding some drama to this scene
As I always say ~ the show, and drama scenes,
only start after the sun goes down...
This showtime started at 7:28pm

A little nearer down to earth...
A golden sunset, some blue skies and dark threatening clouds
Accessorised with silhouettes of tree tops and a nearby hill

Some minutes later, almost all colour is gone...

I come in from the window, about to put my camera away...
I turn around, and framed by my home front window,
what do I see...
Another scene worthy of another shot!

This is my view when I sit at my laptop
I feel most fortunate!
Whenever Nature puts on a show,
I get front row seats!

Happy Sun Thursday, everyone!

Yes, there seems to be a time frame as it gets later and later, when it truly shines...

We have been going back and forth weather wise as well @ackhoo.
I seriously want to see the comet, and to get some images of it, but I went out a couple of nights ago, hoping to be able to use some hints and advice from Graeme @g-race-c, but all I managed to do was lose a lot of blood to mosquitoes and illustrate just how little I know about using my camera. Such a shame.
I didn't see the comet that night at all. Still got a week or so before it goes bye bye for 6,800 yrs
