Day 21 Time For Some Sunsets

Friday, January 21 – The sunsets here have been very disappointing so far. Here are a couple that I have shot in the last few days. Both are from right in front of our house. I wish we could get some more color. They come and go so fast, no like at home at all. Hey, Curtis, do you remember where we went to shoot a sunset when we were here before? I know it was out of town and there were lots of trees/bushes and we got some nice golden color. I did read in one of the tourist books that sunrises and sunsets here are not terrific, because the sun is blocked by all the hills here. But the golden light right before makes up for it by the way it illuminates all the red hills.  Don’t know where we are heading today. It is looking like another gorgeous day with temps right at 70. It is supposed to cool down to the 60s this weekend. Brr!! The people in Sedona don’t know what cold is for sure. Found some great things for Tiffany’s twins’ birthday yesterday. Walter ran to the closest bakery this morning for Danish. There are so many bakeries here to choose from. I still think my favorite is The Wildflower Bakery, though.

    I think they look pretty nice. Not all sunsets are like ours!

    I really like the top one. A nice silloutte (sp?). Try later by 15-25 minutes, then use a tripod, high ISO and about a 30 sec exposure. That is how I got the sunset and stars together. I will try to remember when that was and check the EXIF.

    I will look at a map of the area and see if I can recall where we were, too.

    I think the sunset photos you took are very pretty. I think my favorite is the middle one with that gorgeous rock formation in the background. Or is that foreground since the rock formation is in front of the sun?

    I agree with Debbie, I like the third sunset, but I also like fourth sunset photo.
