A couple of weeks ago I was sitting outside on our patio (which I've become a bit obsessed with this year -- it's been my go-to spot when the weather permits and I have the time to just sit and read or relax) and witnessed a gorgeous sunset. As it progressed, I just sat and took pictures as the colors changed and the cloud formation progressed across the sky...
Here's the start...
And here's where it really started looking interesting...
And this was the most colorful shot I was able to get...
Time to go get the dollbaby out of bed so we can start our three day weekend together. I'll be back to visit your posts soon! Happy Saturday and I hope you are able to enjoy the holiday weekend! Many thanks to our armed forces who have fought for us to enjoy freedom and holiday weekends like this one. Your sacrifice has not gone unnoticed and is greatly appreciated and respected.

You have a great view of the sky and the neighborhood, too, from your patio. It must be lovely to sit there and enjoy. Thanks for the show today...and for visiting my blog.
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful...such delicate colors. Thanks for sharing this, Melissa. Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteThe sky put on quite a show for you!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I always have a hard time doing sunsets justice on film.
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous sunset. I love sunsets, but it is so built up where we are you never get a vie. My Snapshot is at http://goo.gl/hfGhV
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Great that you'd taken them as a series so we can see the gradual change in hue. I look forward to more nature photos from you right out your doorstep. ;)
ReplyDeleteThe light reflected off the clouds is gorgeous! And so amazing how different the sky looked at different times during one single evening. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI announced my summer reading challenge today - it's very low-key - you only need to read at least one book over 400 pages this summer to participate. It was a lot of fun last year - check it out!
Enjoy the rest of the weekend -

ReplyDeleteNice that you have a clear view. I have all kinds of structures and utility lines in the way. I can understand patio obsession. I love to sit on my deck and relax and pretend I'm at a nice resort!
ReplyDeleteSpring and autumn sunsets are pretty special aren't they? Looks like you have the perfect place for viewing them too :-)
