Before all this wet summer silliness began, there was a time, not many weeks ago, where there were beautiful sunsets every night. I happened to have a camera handy for two of them.
Here is what I came up with:
The first two were taken at risk to my own health, standing in the middle of the road outside my house! The rest were on another night a few days later, at a local park, my local friends will recognise it I’m sure!
I drove past on my way home and saw some amazing shadows, so I raced home and came back with my camera, the shadows were fading quickly, but instead I was left with a jaw-dropper of a sunset.
Some of these shots are definitely leaning toward the random/abstract side, I was enjoying experimenting with the light! In the middle shot above, I am fascinated with the way the colour and light bleeds out around an object (a chain-link) that is out of focus in the foreground and the sun appears like a water droplet in front of it.
I have to admit, that I was absolutely stunned by the sunset itself, and I cant claim credit for that, nature put on a show for me! I have saved my favourite two shots for last:
