The Last of the Light

Felt I really ought to put up the occasional picture in colour this month and today was running away from me at a rate of knots. So I went over to Folkestone to chase the sunset. There on the skyline was a little group of Highland Cattle so I snapped them quickly before the light faded. This shot would have been so much better had I been brave enough to get closer, but I wasn't. One of them raised his head and looked at me and that was enough to send me back to the car! Pre 365 I wouldn't have even gone into the same field, let alone strayed from the security of the fence, so I guess that's a step in the right direction.
great shot and light, excellent silhouettes

Love the colors and silhouette. But take care do not dangerous things for a photo.

I don't think you needed to get any closer. The sky is so beautiful it needed to be large and the silhouettes look even better against so much of it. Great shot!

Lovely bands of color in the sky and I like there is enough light left to silhouette the cattle on the horizon.

The different tones of orange and the silhouettes of the cows are great.

You went into their paddock!! That is crazy brave - but you did get a wonderful photo from it.their silhouettes are so good against that sky.

This is just lovely

Getting those silhouettes in such colour from the sky is fabulous! Highland cattle have such long horns but if they are socialised, are just friendly beasts!
October 16th, 2018  
Lovely silhouettes against the beautiful sky :)

@jacqbb @maggiemae They could well have been docile but the horns were very long and I wasn't going to test that theory!

Fantastic colour and silhouette...

Ha ha, laughing at the image of you legging it back to the car with a cow running after you!! You got a lovely colour there in this shot

Lovely shot

@fbailey I shall have to give this some serious thought, thanks Felicity
October 17th, 2018  
This is really lovely. You did well to stay back. I think it makes the better picture with the inclusion of the line of cows on the horizon.
October 17th, 2018  
Excellent!
