Our sunsets have awed me recently.
High winds make the clouds string out into long thin lines. It makes our familiar landscape look otherworldly.
The one thing that has made me sad is that my usual silhouette model, Shyla, has been in no shape to clamber on boulders. This sky was calling out to me for a silhouette photo!
But, then I realized that R used to sometimes be my silhouette model. I thought that he could remember the routine. So, after I saw the sky in the photo just above, we walked very fast to a good boulder for silhouettes.
Indeed, R remembered the routine, and he was *thrilled* to be the dog who was the silhouette model. Fortunately, the phenobarbital had Shyla sedated enough that it didn't occur to her to be upset that R was playing her role.
It's fun to mix up our normal routine sometimes! Happy Silhouette Sunday!
gorgeous, stunning, amazing, WOW
ReplyDeleteGood job R! The clouds are amazing and hugs to dear Shyla from all of us.
ReplyDeleteR makes a stunning stand in:) Hope the meds settle in Shyla soon.
ReplyDeleteR looks so majestic! He is doing well standing in for Shyla!

So beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThose are beautiful sunsets! And R is a great model. I'm already missing my Arizona skies, so these are very nice to see.
ReplyDeleteThat magical time when those colours show so deeply. R is a great model, and think well that Shyla will be there again.
ReplyDeleteThat first photo is very dramatic! Love it.
ReplyDeleteJust wow!
ReplyDeleteYes, even here the skies have been beautiful (more so)! Thanks for pitching in as model R!

We have seen some pretty pink sunsets here this past week, but they pale in comparison to what you have there. Good for R, but we hope to see Shyla back up there, maybe along with him, next week:)
ReplyDeleteLast night's was particularly lovely, even if my view is urban.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful sunset and beautiful silhouette.
ReplyDeleteWOW girl, those are beautiful......and you know how I love those silhouette shots. (Thanks Millie and WAlter, for spelling silhouette out for me to copy)
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear the pheno is still making Shyla sleepy. R definitely still remembers how to strike an amazing pose.
ReplyDeleteR did a great job. You always take such gorgeous pictures
ReplyDeleteOur sunsets have been beautiful, too. It's that wind! Love the first pic. Hope Shyla feels better soon.
ReplyDeleteWhat a handsome silhouette R is!!
ReplyDeleteSmileys!

Oh my ...... how beautiful!!! And thanks for the tip about keeping hydrated for Raynauds. I never drink enough water. I have been trying to drink a lot since reading your tip and can't tell if it is helping the Raynauds (its not so cold here now) but I have noticed it seems to be helping my arthritis. I do have good days and bad days with it so maybe it is just that but I will continue to drink heaps and keep you informed on how it's going.
ReplyDeleteThat is beautiful! R makes a terrific model! Hope Shyla will be back to herself again real soon.
