This afternoon, my trusty little camera and I took ourselves outside to see if we could find one of our infamous and stunningly beautiful sunsets.
Hmm, no such luck today; however, we did manage some very pretty photos.
The moon has made an early appearance. Well, either that, or it has been hanging around visibly in the sky all day! Either way, my photo came out rather well, I thought.

The northern sky is a brilliant blue right now, but the southern sky is sporting some rather grey clouds.

Whilst standing in the shade of a massive Poinciana tree I had a trial run of taking a series of photos pointing the camera directly into the sun. This photo is my favourite.

As the weather begins to cool down, (I’m sure it will, very soon!) my camera and I have made a deal to take our walks further afield than our own garden. Who knows what we may find! 🙂
Oh, I like the moon one. . . and the setting sun is rather lovely, kind of like lace, even if it isn’t a sunset.

The moon photo was a surprise, Josie. I’m not extremely “camera literate”, but recently discovered the zoom lever. Look at the great job it did! 🙂

Nice moon, Joanne. Sounds like you have really been hot! Interesting how we can go out looking for sunsets, but the Universe has other special gifts in mind instead.

You’re so right there, Kathy! There will be plenty of other sunsets for me to photograph, another day. 🙂

I’m so glad you’re getting out and about with your camera! Excited, too. Now I’ll have the opportunity to see what it’s like where you live. 🙂
They are all beautiful shots. I’m with you on the last one. It’s my favorite of the group, too. Really beautiful!

You know Robin, that’s exactly what I was thinking! I enjoy seeing your “out and about” photos so much and thought people overseas may like to see more of my local area! And I didn’t really miss out on seeing a beautiful sunset, which I had originally hoped for…you had one in Ohio for me to share. 🙂 http://bogsofohio.wordpress.com/2011/02/14/145-sky-dreaming-in-colors/
