It's A Wild Sky!!

When the sun sets I am so often torn between just watching it,
enjoying it,
and grabbing the camera to record it.

When you enjoy taking pictures, as I do,
it is difficult to watch something spectacular,
and not record it with pictures.

This was one of those moments.

We just happen to be out and about,
right by the river, 
with a perfect spot to turn the car around and capture
this very beautiful and unusual cloud formation,
just before sunset!

Ooh! Debbie, I will do the same too. Turn the car around to capture the beautiful sky with my camera. This is just too beautiful to let go with capturing it.

Gorgeous! How could you not want to capture this? Glad you did!

Adrienne said...

Yup. Agree. Always hard NOT to snap some pics! I stopped along "my" pond yesterday on the way home from a work errand...just couldn't NOT stop and get a few shots. I love the colors in these shots - sunsets rarely disappoint!

Just beautiful, and I know just what you mean.

all the time - I am retraining myself to work on just experiencing 'it' as opposed to always being the 'record keeper'. Beautiful!

Breath taking photos! What a glorious view and how serendipitous that you were there at that time to capture all it's beauty!

I totally share your sentiments - to hold back and not photograph is near impossible.

I totally get what your saying because my husband is exactly the same way, so I let him do all the work of capturing it and I sit back and enjoy it ;) works out for the both of us.... Such a gorgeous sunset to have captured, it always amazes me the colors that you can see in the sky from a sunset... Amazing!!
