2016 04 04 As good as it gets!!

The sky was overcast and we had rain in the afternoon so not much hope of a sunset. Suddenly my sister says that red sky looks nice. I grabbed the camera and just caught the last glow of the sun as it set behind Appledore. I am hoping to get a better sunset this week but the forecast is not good. Well it is Devon after all and it wouldn't be so lush and green if it didn't rain so much!!

Many thanks for your lovely comments on my holiday shots - much appreciated. Colin,Louise, Badger and Ella have just left so it just Barbara, Finlay and me now. Tomorrow we will meet up with my niece Ruth and her girls so I am hoping to get some shots of them.
Great shot and composition

Knowing the lay of the land now by having looked at the map, I can appreciate where the sun sets. Do you get in a little boat and visit Appledore?

@maggiemae At high tide there is a small ferry boat which goes across to Appledore. There is also a bridge over the river as you come out of Instow so we go over the river that way. We will be going tomorrow with my niece as there is a wonderful cafe there overlooking the river. The coffee is divine and their home made cakes are out of this world. They do fresh crab sandwiches for lunch which are well worth travelling down here to sample!! I am looking forward to lunch tomorrow!! LOL!!

I like the subtle colors in the scene -- it has a beautiful tranquil feeling.

Love how the pinks are reflected in the water right on the shoreline

At least you captured some pinks! This looks like a charming place... so serene. Crab sandwiches sound delicious, too.
