I must admit I left my husband at the dinner table to run out and capture the sun’s last hurrah as it set over the Pacific Ocean. (No worries – I did have his blessing.) Alas, the sun moved more quickly than I did, and without many clouds in the sky there wasn’t a great deal of color, but I thought the scene worked beautifully in black and white. Hope you agree!

This is beautiful, Stacy! I could relate to this as when you see something beautiful and want to capture it, you dont quite see what you are doing you just run! Ahh by the way i write travel blogs, do have a look

I like the tonal shades and the grass silhouettes. That’s me every time – missing the optimal light in the sunset. May we never stop trying!

Cheers to that! I was really surprised by how much I liked it in black and white 🙂

Works beautifully Stacy! Always a surprise isn’t it how quickly that sun moves over the horizon. Love those wispy tendrils of grass silhouetted in the sunset . . .

Thanks, Patti! I went back and forth on it quite a bit. As for the quickness of the setting sun, I was paying more attention to Dave than the outside (as it should be) 😃 But when I did glance outside and saw the sun going, well, the race was on (and my efforts could have been hampered by a glass or two of wine 😉).

Agreed! And I can’t wait to tell my husband he isn’t the only man whose wife leaves him at the dinner table to go take pictures! 😉

LOL! I felt bad, but hey, he said “go, go, go,” so I “went, went, went.” 😀 Thanks, Robyn!
