The Sun sets on another day. by orangecrush

The Sun sets on another day.

Is it just me or are the days flying by at lighting speed. I wake up and the next thing I know the sun is setting again! I'm getting ready for the day and suddenly I'm getting ready for bed! Is it an age thing? How can I slow the clock down to a speed it was when I was young? When a summer seemed like a year or when I dated someone for three months it seemed like forever? They say, "Time flies when your having fun", maybe I'm just having too much fun...

This shot was taken tonight at sunset. It was beautiful but I am just so intrigued by how this shot looks in B&W, I just had to leave it that way.
Your just having WAAAYYYY to much fun! great shot! this is with that one lens that does the tilt shift affect huh

This is fantastic in black and white! Great effect!

jerry i love the b&w and choice of focus here...did you shoot with a lensbaby? i have one and really enjoy it but haven't used it much in awhile. and i sure hear you about time flying. i can't believe the summer is over!
September 22nd, 2011  
@cvanheel Thanks, Cade! Yes, This is the Lensbaby!
@exposure4u Thanks, Wendy!
@pixelchix It is! Mine has sat in my bag too! I'm glad I'm doing this lens a week, it forces me to use it again!
September 22nd, 2011  
I have never wanted a baby so much, but now I gotta get me a lens baby! It's all your fault Jerry! I want to take amazing shot just like this! :-)
September 22nd, 2011  
Tremendous effect. I look at the 4 lensbabys, which would you recommend and do you get the use out of it?
September 22nd, 2011  
oh this is just so lovely!! really love it!
September 22nd, 2011  
@lorihiro Lol! Your too funny, Lori! ;)
@bdb3471 I have the Compressor. It takes all the different lens kits you can get. Its a great lens but its a specialty thing. I use it and its a lot of fun but I only grab it when I'm looking for a special effect. I felt like it was affordable and I'm glad I own one!

September 22nd, 2011  
I love the use of B&W for this shot., Perfect.

September 23rd, 2011  
I understand about time flying. I am starting to wish the days were 10 hours longer. Great shot. Maybe I just missed something - but what exactly is a "Lensbaby"?
September 23rd, 2011  
Never mined Jerry - found the shot where you explain. This is what happens when I go through shots backwards. :-)
September 23rd, 2011  
instant fav for me. beautiful. I could see this hanging in my house!
September 23rd, 2011

Perfection, so dramatic!!!!!

@brumbe You'll have a lot of fun!
September 24th, 2011  
This is such a great shot and the b&w is amazinggg...
September 24th, 2011  
Beautiful photo, very serene.
September 25th, 2011  
nice composition; when you are 5 years old 1 year is 20% of your life, when you are 25 one year is 4% , and at 50 it is only 2% - so it is going faster ;)
