I THOUGHT THE WISPY CLOUDS AT THE TOP LOOKED AS IF THE CLOUDS WERE ABOUT TO BE ERASED. :)

Great minds, Carletta! I just came in from trying to shoot the same sunset colors over my neighborhood trees. My results are not this stunning though. Good lesson in always remembering to look up. Beautiful, beautiful.

Oh my gosh Carletta, I think that's one of the prettiest sunsets I've ever seen. Fantastic!!! With the dark foreground, your sky is really magical.

I'm trying to get around to as many blogging friends as I can to let let them know that I have finally gone on comment moderation. I've been getting a terrible amount of spam recently, horrendous in fact but at least I can keep it under control now and hopefully it will all settle down soon.

Have a great weekend!
