Finally A Sunset #SkywatchFriday

My drought of sunsets broke on August 15.

It wasn't that we didn't have nice sunsets here and there.  It was just that, by the end of the day, I didn't feel like going out there and looking.  Especially when it got hot and icky.

But on August 15, the weather was nice.  I took some pictures during the day.  Then, I knew my sunset luck had changed when I saw this sight.  I knew I had to put my shoes on and run out there.

Technically, the sun had already set and the blue hour was starting. (It isn't an hour long, but the blue hour, the time right after the sun has set, is a fine time for photography).

As I walked, I knew it was going to be good.

And it was good. So, so good.

    I haven't been able to see a sunrise or a sunset in months. I'm looking forward to being able to do so.
