Silhouette Sunday

One evening recently, every cloud in the sky lit up in pink at sunset. One of my favorite aspen groves was bathed in pink light.
When I see a sunset like this one developing, I'm always torn about whether to head to the view of the Continental Divide or head for my favorite spot for silhouette photos. On this evening, we hustled to the silhouette spot. It was the tail end of the sunset, almost dusk, but it was glorious.
I think that I notice and appreciate Nature's glorious displays even more now that I am a photographer. I recognize a truly special moment and make sure I don't miss it! The pink sunset was one of those moments.

    We have had some amazing pink and purple sunrises the past few weeks. The colours remind me of your sunset.

    You are so gifted in photography-your photos are always amazing and I love this one. We were probably both enjoying the same sunset; we live in a beautiful area and I love how you are able to capture it and share with us.
    Hugs, Noreen

    You are so lucky to live where photo ops are so plentiful. These are another set of beautiful pictures.
