Evening's Delight by digitalrn

Evening's Delight

It was another beautiful evening, not quite as humid, and there was a slight breeze which made the evening stroll enjoyable. My favorite time to go out for a walk is in the early evening hours, just before the sun goes down. I love being surprised by the beauty of the sun going down. Tonight was no exception. I followed a path that winds along through a wooded area, and around the lake. There were people fishing, people walking their dogs and people riding their bikes. As I approached the opening, returning to my car, my eyes fell upon this beautiful scene. I was hoping to be able to capture the beauty of what I saw. When I arrived home, I downloaded my photos, and I was pleased. Such a beautiful ending to a walk, and to a rough day. I love nature. I hope your day was a positive one. Have a great night, and a wonderful tomorrow.
Gorgeous!!!

Nicely captured silhouettes.
June 24th, 2011  
The last rays of the dying sun against the very dark surrounding foliage makes for an interesting shot. Nice one, Rick.
June 24th, 2011  
@nikkers Oh Nikkers, I think you would add a little.....well let's say, a lot of life to the area...but definitely will think about that.
June 24th, 2011

Rick I don't get to see the sun setting most nights as I live in the middle of a wooded area. So I certainly enjoyed this.
June 24th, 2011  
This is gorgeous!!!! I really like the lighting and composition. Enjoy your peaceful evening too
June 24th, 2011  
Lucky you....we've had a big wave of humidity the last couple of days...just awful!
June 24th, 2011  
Fantastic evening sky, looks very serene !

How the heck did you get that shot. My night shots always come out looking..well..not so good. This is lovely.
June 25th, 2011  
Yes, I agree it's a lovely shot - love the silhouetting of the leaves.
June 25th, 2011  
@nectarfizz Bekki, actually it was brighter than it looks. Shooting into the sun gives it the silhouette effect, the sun was partly behind the clouds, so I was able to avoid the typical flare you get.
June 25th, 2011  
Fantastic and a fav
June 25th, 2011  
Wonderful sunset shot!
June 26th, 2011

love the empty black space Rick, it really adds to the composition.
