    Some sunsets are so very beautiful. We had some good sunset and sunrise views when the smoke from Canada was down here. Have a fun day!

    Wow those are stunning sunsets. So pretty. I wanted to see the meteor showers but getting up at 3:30 A.M to dawn. I am not sure I can do it as it will be here tomorrow again. Have a wonderful day.

    Those are beautiful. I especially like the second one, that mix of moody colours and rich oranges. Stunning. I love both sunrises and sunsets, that refreshing feeling of a new day just starting or a new day just around the corner. Have a lovely rest of your Thursday, Sandee! xx

    What fabulishious sky shots! I LOVE them. Ours have been pretty wonderful, the smoke really makes the sky light up in spectacular colors. The Persieds meteor shower is to be excellent tonight. I am expecting to leave tomorrow and I am hoping they are still falling when I get home.

    At our former home we used to see the most beautiful sunsets! At the farmhouse we see neither, except through the trees. I miss them, but I’m still thankful for our current home!! ♥
