Sunsets are one of the, umm, two things I like about Texas. *grin* And last night the sunset was another beauty. It was very cloudy and grey early in the evening, and I didn't think we'd see any sunset at all. Alan and I were sitting in the living room, when out the window I saw the light had changed and was completely different. Everything was gold and glowing! The sun had dropped beneath the storm clouds and was casting beautiful gold light on everything around us. Outside I went, camera in hand.
We could see the storm to the north, and the VERY black clounds of the storm that was to the southwest of us that promised to come our way. And between the two storms was the setting sun.
The last photo I took of the sunset.
When I first started taking photos, when the sun was well above the horizon, the air was completely still. Our own moment of silence for those effected by this week's weather.

Your sunset stages are just magnificent! I would have to agree, that of Texas' redeeming qualities, the sunsets are at the top of the list! It's a great state, but I just couldn't stand the heat.And the flatness! ha Thank you for these gorgeous photos. You are just amazing!

Youza! some real dandy's for sure. Rain up here in the mountains big time, possible snow in the morning and the lilac's may open as well...The Hough kid and the Pickler girl won the dance contest. She had all the right parts to win it. Mom and I would like to be 25 again just for a little dancing....Love, Dad
