Nice shot, Linda. Love that time of day when the birds and insects are still softly twittering as they settle into chosen sleeping spots. josh

Very nice Joan. Trees, clouds, water, reflections, sunrises/sunsets... hard to beat those ingredients. "This was the actual color." I know what you mean. Occasionally I feel like I have to tone down the real color because it looks photo edited.

Georgeous!!! I love beautiful sunsets, and you have the spot to watch that rivals most. Where in MN do you live? My sister lives in Minneapolis but she and her husband just bought a condo here in Phoenix for winters. Her husband grew up in Minne but we were raised in St. Louis and we both moved to Phoenix for jobs (a few years apart) until she met and married, then she moved to Minne with him. The only time we have been there was a few years ago for New Year's eve, the high got up to -2 degrees!!! She can work from home and likes to take walks, she comments on how beautiful they are, but I have never seen a pic! Thanks for posting!

Ours was gorgeous, too -- NE of Orlando. Pink and blue. We have some really beautiful sunsets here; waaay more than anywhere else we've lived.
