Skywatch - When The Sun Sets In




This is our first time participating in Skywatch Friday. We've seen it going around and have always wanted to join in but never really get around to doing it till now.


Plus, we remembered and were inspired by Butchy & Snicker's post on sunsets a while back, which had awesome pictures of sunsets!


Here are two pictures taken from our kitchen window a while ago. Both sunsets were taken just a few days apart. But see how different they are.

Sunsets are so beautiful, aren't they?

Have a great weekend everybody!

welcome to the fellowship of sky watchers. love your shots.

BellaMama said...

Hope you're internet connection is working (I think it was a "bug" that got most everyone!). One friend took off the site meter & was able to get to her blog, but not to friends who's meter was still there. Blogger said it was a glitch that had regular people's blogs registering as spam. My problems went away after a while with no help from me!

Glad you were able to visit!!

Have a blessing of a day in the Lord!

Welcome to Sky Watch it's Nice to have you here..
These are great captures and the fact you took then from your own home just about says it all about Sky Watching... all that is really needed is an eye for the shot... and some good luck with the skies above.

Sunsets are perfect for dogs because the quiet of the evening heralds the night, the anticipation of interesting smells, of the activity of nocturnal creatures, and the warmth of the rug at home with all of your beloved humans around you!

Myman has been doing a lot of those sky pictures lately too! I try to remind her that I'm a little lower than the sky...and my nose is a much better shot than any sunset or storm!

Slurp!
