Enjoying the Sunset ......

When I took this photograph, it was getting dark very quickly and I thought this young girl was sitting on the wall enjoying the sunset. Looking at it on the computer she is on her phone - such a shame - it would have been a much better composition had she been gazing into the distance!! Maybe she could enjoy it and talk at the same time!!

Thank you for your very kind comments on my photograph yesterday and apologies for not getting to see yours. Have been away for a couple of days but will catch up!
Wonderful sunset shot Catherine, even if she was checking her phone!

Maybe she was telling someone about it.

A sign of the times with these 'magic boxes' we all have with us 24/7. I still like this so very much. The gently silhouetted girl and the wonderful sunset. Fav.

@joysabin thank you so much Joy. You are right - probably unusual for someone to be sitting there just gazing without the support of a phone!! Thank you for the fav

@fbailey Thank you. I was disappointed when I saw it so had to darken it a little!!

Think our younger generation is missing out on a whole lot thanks to our modern technology. My daughter (now in her 50's) can't move without it in her hand. Doesn't understand why I don't have mine with me at all times - has come over to check on me if I don't answer (because I'm out mowing!) Love the colors and the figure - and I'd be sitting there just gazing! :)

A perfect time of the day, sorry her sunset moment was interrupted by the phone call,

@milaniet We are all potentially, available 24 hrs a day now!! It was spectacular and apart from taking photos, I just gazed too!

@onewing I love sunsets and sunrises - special times of the day.

I kinda get what you mean here Catherine, it's such a beautiful sky to not be paying it too much attention. But, having said that, she casts a beautiful silhouette and that sky is stunning! Fav for me :-)

Yes...she doesn't realize the beauty she is missing. One of these days hopefully she will...it takes life and more time.
