Tuesday's Sunset

cross-posted at Docudharma.

Today was a very beautiful day in New York City. After a late night I never got out of the apartment and spent the day enjoying beautiful cloud formations and a strong cold breeze. The sky cleared in the late afternoon but the clouds came back for sunset.

The view tonight seemed like a few sunsets, so there are many photos below the fold. I hope you enjoy the show.

Eddie C :: Tuesday's Sunset
But first the afternoon view of the cool cloudy day;

The late afternoon sun was so bright that it needed to be cropped out;

Too bright for the camera until the cloud got back into the act;

Good close up view;

After being obscured by clouds, the sun comes out for another showing;

Once again too bright for photography;

Once again a little cropping;

And then the sunset show gets underway, 7:51 PM by the clock in my camera;

I loved the clouds in the last rays of the sun tonight;

And some pretty lights after;

I've always wondered if those almost vertical lines are a rainstorm in the setting sun but I can never get over there in time.

Beautiful (14.60 / 5)
Thanks Eddie

For some reason the 5th from the bottom reminds me of a volcano from far away.


I love the third one below "Good close up view." (14.60 / 5)
Your volcano pic I like much more after you pointed it out but that stand out cloud was a great view.

That one (15.00 / 5)
makes me think of a city on the clouds, and the city lights are shining up into view.  

I think I'm in kind of a silly mood tonight.

I agree, Alma! (15.00 / 4)
That one
makes me think of a city on the clouds, and the city lights are shining up into view.

repeat myself here:  As you know, Eddie, your sunset photos always make me feel calmer, more relaxed: but what I LOVE is the Hudson, and the way you almost always seem to capture a barge or two, proving that NY Harbor & the Hudson are part of a working port city.

Of course, I love the sailboats, too.  ;-D

English usage is sometimes more than mere taste, judgment and education - sometimes it's sheer luck, like getting across the street.
