Oregon Sunset

This is not your Kuwait sunrise – we are on the way far west coast, and what we get here, when we are on the water, is spectacular sunsets. I thought of you when I saw this sunset last night – and the sun set around 8:45 at night! I didn’t have the energy to share it with you last night, but I will share it with you now.

And just moments later, day is done:

  3. Beautiful view.

    You could use some sand storms you know. Next time swap the weather. πŸ˜›

  5. Great photos! Your sunsets are so much better than mine! I haven´t managed one I think is good enough for my blog. 😦

  6. I grew up with it, Momcat, so it seems normal to me. πŸ˜‰

    LLOOLLL, Purg. I do have some food photos coming for you.

    Mac – Please! I could use some hints for photographing sandstorms! All I get is one big orange blob!

    It is a beautiful ORANGE Oregon sunset, isn’t it, Ansam?

    Aafke – I think the difference is being in the west, ocean, clouds . . . . πŸ˜‰

  7. Intlxpatr, we have very nice sunsets here, not so spectacular, but very beautiful, with a large red sun sinking into a beautiful pastel palet of colours. I just don’t seem to be able to capture it on camera. 😦

  8. Aafke – I use Lumix. Everyone in my family is addicted to them. They are so lightweight and they do so much.
