#sunset
This is one of two times in the year that the #Sun sets into the chimney of the house opposite. The #clouds form a nice #background to the dark #silhouetted #trees and #buildings in the foreground. Also the gold and yellow contrasts nicely with the blue #sky.
Two #photographs taken at #dusk. The first is just before #sunset with a #house and #trees in the #foreground in #silhouette. I like the #LensFlare in this #image.
The next was taken about a quarter of an hour later when the #Sun had passed over the #horizon. This illuminates to #clouds nicely. You can also see an #aeroplane and its short #contrail too.

Quand le soleil décline
La campagne s'illumine
Et je m'incline
Touchée en plein coeur

You know a #sunspot is big when you can see it in the #sunset. At the end of the day on Oct. 5th, Radu Anghel photographed AR3112 from #Bacau, #Romania:
"What a wonderful view," says Anghel. "Clouds crossing the solar disk made it look like a big Jupiter with sunspots! :)"
AR3112 is one of the biggest sunspots in years. With more than a dozen dark cores scattered across 300,000 km of solar terrain
Today is the penultimate full day of #summer in the #northern #hemisphere if, like the majority of the population on the planet, you live in or east of #Europe or #Africa. The #equinox will occur a little after 02:00Z on Friday 23 September. With today's #sunset, I present two #photographs but each both in #greyscale (or #BlackAndWhite) and #colour.
I think the contrast is better in black and white #image and you can more clearly see the #birds flying about. The colour one is of course richer and has that extra dimension.
This wider shot shows a greater expanse of #sky with more variation in colour (only for the colour image, of course).
Earlier, I posted an #overcast #sky but the #clouds are clearing along the western #horizon. Here the #sunset is approaching but I would call this a #sunsink, as the #Sun emerges from its erstwhile #occlusion but the #Earth is about to rotate it over the edge into #night. The #orange light cast into this room was beautiful for a few moments.
Today was again a #sunny end to the #day and I decided to take #portrait #photographs of the #sunset. This shows a greater portion of #sky away from the #horizon and so you can gauge the #colour gradients better.
This first one gives a wider (taller) field of view without the window frame encroaching into the #image.
The second one is slightly more zoomed in.
