Lots of clouds yielded a colorful sunset

The clouds returned today for the send off of our luminary.

One hour before sunset, clouds of puffy cotton balls congregated in the western horizon, promising a light show. Alas, it wasn’t to be as they disappeared as if by an act of prestidigitation and the sun shone alone to the end and sank right on top of the Tropic of Capricorn, on this winter solstice of 2021!

This is Como Lake in the premier twin cities’ Park

Another summer day end in a blaze of colors

No clouds today

A peaceful moment in the mountains...watching seasons change.

Enjoying springtime and awaiting summer. Won't be long.

Thursday sunset brought a riot of colors to the skies above Lake Josephine

Another clear, crispy, sunny weather that sometimes happens in winter in the northern latitudes. White clouds hovered in the west as the sun set them afire with crimson and ferruginous hues.

Golden clouds lit up the western horizon on this sunset.

The grace and elegance of these anatidae as they swim majestically on a becalmed lake illuminated by the setting sun, speak of poetry

Great day, calm, with no wind which allowed the sky to be reflected on the water

It was a topsy turvy, disordered weather system that saw clouds whipping by as the winds increased, blowing snow, like in a blizzard. The wind chill factor soared, but in one moment the sun peeked from behind the roiling clouds and I was ready

The sun finally burned through the overcast by the end of the day, allowing this view.

It snowed today but the sunset was ablaze with rutilant clouds.

Blue skies all day as a counterpoint to yesterday’s snowstorm

A day with snow, overcast and finally sunlight

I thought that a 20mm focal length would show better the forming ice layer on the lake surface. As it turned out, the reflection on the open patch of water was very sharp and pleasing.

All day the clouds promised spectacular sunset, owing to a deep blue skies above them. Sure enough the sky turned scarlet with gold strewn around.

Just the sun on a clear sky, falling off the edge of the world.

A fabulous end of an October day

A beautiful weather descended on the region as the temperature climbed above freezing and the sun shone all day.

A little earlier than the real sunset, but I wanted to capture the orb shining on the sky before it got lower on the horizon.

A balmy day relative to the usual. The late afternoon sun shone fiercely as it turned for home, setting the sky awash in pinks and yellows.

No clouds today for a dramatic sundoff!

A cloud appeared as if made of gold nuggets strewn across the sky

I wanted to cover the freezing waters of Lake Josephine as they reflected the vermilion from the red illuminated clouds above.

August is a great month for glorious sunsets

A clear blue sky was the weather for today.

A fiery sun descended on a conflagration of colors, of which a violent vermilion was one followed by a xanthous blonde

The sun returned sans clouds!

The morning was clouded, with a washed out sky, improving dramatically towards late afternoon with a blindingly brilliant sun.

Another winter Crepuscule up here in the Northland

The clouds floated, fat and buoyant, all day, only to race away below the horizon, to reveal an azure sky at Crepuscule.

No dramatic skies in today’s sunset

Finally, the clouds moved in, allowing the setting sun to paint the sky with these warm colors

After yesterday’s snowstorm, Sol returned to claim its domain!

A resplendent fall colors in the sky to match the golden carpet of leaves strewn on the ground

A bright, strongly sunlit day, yielding some clouds at the sunset

A glorious sun dipping on a high summer day

The sun shone fiercely on its way down. This was what it looked like today at Como Park in Saint Paul.
