In the summer we get to enjoy this type of sunset almost every night. I drove home to these incredible colors on my way home from our new Super Target. I immediately called Ronald and asked him to set up my camera and tripod so that I could start shooting in our backyard as soon as I got home. After several mosquito bites and many takes with a very low shutter speed, success. Okay, so we're not THAT far out in the country but since we are surrounded by cornfields and just a handful of houses in our subdivision, nothing blocks blocks our view. And in case any of you photo peeps are wondering, minimal tweaking of colors was involved in the post-processing of this image. ;o)
Happy Monday!
That is beautiful, Joy! Wow! We live out in the country too (just north of Nashville) and love it. Oh, and congrats on the new Super Target! Yippeee!! ;) Hugs! Have a great week!
