Liar, liar, sky on fire!
I was typing an email and then looked out the window and saw the
amazing red colors churning across the sky. I felt it was necessary
to grab my camera and run outside and take some pictures. And I did.
I tried a couple with my telephoto zoom lens, but I wanted a wider view.
Then I put on the wide angle and I got too much of the apartment parking
lot (which to be fair, had just been recoated earlier that day, which
made me condier the wisdom of not putting on shoes, mostly that it
confined me to the sidewalk). Anyway, I grabbed my 55mm prime lens and
took some shots with it. I hope it gives some sense of how widely
dispersed the sunset colors were and how cool it looked to me.
DSC_6396: This was looking south at the half-moon. It was fuzzy because
of the thin clouds around. There's a hint of pink in the background
visible.
DSC_6397: Looking west with the tree silhouettes.
It really looked that cool (or fiery)!
DSC_6398: More sunset tree silhouettes.
DSC_6399: The lone tree.
DSC_6400: Two half-trees at sunset.
DSC_6402: A slightly longer shot.
DSC_6403: Another fuzzy half-moon shot with the 55mm lens.
DSC_6413: A larger sunset view of the less scenic parking
lot, complete with cones.
DSC_6415: Thin tree branches at sunset. It's art, damn it!
sunset_Panorama1: A composite images from 8 pictures of trees by my
apartment at sunset.
