Which Sunset for Today? #SkywatchFriday

After months and months of hardly any sunsets to show you, I had promised to show you a really good one.

In the meantime, there was another good sunset.

One notable thing about our second summer (right now, writing this on Thursday afternoon, it is 58 F (14.4C) and I'm enjoying every degree of it)  is that the warmish weather is happening after the return of early sunsets.  Tonight, sunset is 4:42 pm.  

On days when I work, it fits right in with when my work days end.  On days off, it's still a convenient time, as we tend to eat supper a little later than many. 

I prefer not to do sunset photography in cold weather where I have to take gloves off.  With this warm wave, I'm comfortable taking pictures.

Also, the sunsets have cooperated with some nice ones.  Thank you, sunsets, for thinking of me and my readers.

The day opened up with frost all over the ground and frost on the windshield of our car. This was about 7:50 am.

Midday.

By 4:52 pm, things were looking promising.

A couple of minutes later, promise kept.

Reflection on the river.

More reflections.

And to all, a good night.

Next week, a different sunset.

Joining Yogi and other skywatchers for #SkywatchFriday.
