Sunset from the Balcony by milaniet

Sunset from the Balcony

One problem with traveling is that you don't know the good spots to shoot from. But fortunately the color spread far enough southwest to see from the balcony.

Am dealing with a major problem. Probably second degree burns on the top of both feet - Kept sunscreen on face, arms, legs - but neglected the feet (at the time they were covered with socks and shoes and it just didn't ring a bell) They've formed large blisters that I'm working hard to keep from bursting. No shoes - wearing slipper socks and keeping them elevated every chance I get. Look a little strange going in WalMart, but ---. I seem to be able to drive ok - will just make a longer trip home with more breaks. Not going to let this spoil my trip. It didn't slow down my picture taking a whole lot :)
This is absolutely gorgeous color...(but sorry to hear about your sunburn; sounds frustrating and painful...hope it heals rapidly)

Oh, my, so sorry to hear about your burns! That sounds miserable, and sort of like something that would happen to me... Lovely sunset, hope the rest of your trip is glitch-free.

Beautiful colors and diagonal lines. What a bummer re your feet. Please take good care of them

This is beautiful. Milanie, if you can get a big pan and put ice cubes and ice water in it, you can put your feet in it. That will help more than anything. So sorry about this.

@louannwarren Thanks, LouAnn - been doing that the last two days when I could. The walk-in clinic gave me a bucket I could use.

Forgot to say, immerse feet for a minimum of 20 minutes, out for a few minutes then back in the ice water. If you can do this for as long as you can stand it then do it again in the morning, it will help!

@milaniet oh great! Glad you have a bucket. Ice water is a miracle treatment for burns.

So beautiful! Sorry about the sunburn. Sounds miserable but glad you are not letting it spoil your trip.

Beautiful sunset. Sorry about the sunburn. Know what your going through, for sure. You might try putting some aloa vera on there also. That usually helps and may take away some of the swelling also.
April 15th, 2018  
Glad to hear you went to a clinic. I like your attitude. Don't let it ruin your trip.
April 15th, 2018  
Are those dark specks people? That really gives you some scale.
April 15th, 2018  
Beautiful capture, Milanie...Please be extra vigilant in keeping an eye on those blisters for any infection. So sorry...

The colours - so stunning! The same with your burns happened to my husband when we were on the cruise. He simply forgot about the top of his feet and then he got massive burns there too with blisters. From fellow cruisers we got some aloe Vera cooling gel - that helped a lot. Maybe you can get your hands on it ?!
April 15th, 2018  
oh stunning! I hope those burns heal fast
April 15th, 2018  
Great sunset capture. Terrific colours.
Sorry to hear about the sunburn. Take care.
April 15th, 2018  
Beautiful take care. No I have added sunscreen to my vacation list. Not one who gets out in the bright sun a lot.
April 15th, 2018  
Lovely

Beautiful!

Oh, this is beautiful. What a wonderful sunset with all those colours in the sky and lucky you to witness it. Sorry to hear of the sunburn - safe journey home.
April 15th, 2018  
Beautiful in every way! Oh, Milanie, I’m sorry to hear about your sunburn. How painful it sounds! Please take good care of yourself, and I wish you safe travels.
April 15th, 2018  
So sorry about your sunburn! Tops of feet and tips of ears often get forgotten, then pay the price later. Hope the soreness goes away quickly
April 15th, 2018  
Lovely scene and colors. Great diagonal lines. I hope your burns heal quickly.
April 15th, 2018  
Fab sky!
April 15th, 2018  
Sorry about your burns! Hope they heal soon. Beautiful sunset.

Beautiful shot

Very stunning sunset with such warm vibrant colors. The reflection of sunlight and water are a recipe for bad burns before we realize it. we`ve all been there at one time probably. Aloe can be healing.

@annepann Yes, Anne, those are people out checking for what new shells might have washed up during the day.
