My Gentlemen

While at a Wedding in June, I took this photo of my special men.  I knew that the light was wrong, as I was shooting up at quite an angle and the sun was behind them, but it turned out to be a wonderful silhouette.  I removed a few minor distractions from the background so that all of the focus is on the four men.

Sunsets: Focussing on the Fading Light

Inspired by Kim (Texture Tuesday) and Bonnie (Photo Art Friday), this post a collection of sunsets and sunrises taken over the last couple of weeks.  

My husband and I go for a leisurely boat cruise each evening, and many of these shots are taken while either out on the boat, or from the dock once we return from our cruise.

I love the glowing reflection of the sunset on the lake.

 "Red sky at night, sailer's delight."

We certainly like to see the beautiful pinks and mauves that signal another beautiful day to come.

I love the wonderful silhouettes of the trees.

Another glowing reflection of the sun on the water.  This is actually the sunrise.
Sometimes, before the pink sky come these wonderful blues and oranges.

I especially love the evenings when there are some clouds in the sky to add texture and dimension to the shot.

Here I captured my husband's silhouetted profile  in the foreground of the shot.

This shot was taken only a moment later, but I love how there is a double sun - other worldly...

This is one of my favourites.  I love the variety of colours in the sky.
