My wife and I went for a short walk this evening. A bit cool but beautiful.
Taken with my battered D200 and an old 35mm f/2 AI manual focus lens.
The air was chill but the light was warm and inviting. This was taken 25 minutes before sunset towards the west. I found the low sun silhouetting the trees and the salmon tints in the clouds particularly appealling. In the foreground the rushes seem to be clamouring for warmth and there is sheeps wool caught in the fence. This is England!

Song:
Evening sun, descending,
Teach me when life is ending,
Night shall pass and I, like you,
Shall rise again, where life is new:
Teach me, sun descending!
- Chr Richardt (1861) / Carl Mortensen, trans SD Rodholm

Yes, I know... another sunset. Someone might say that they are common. Someone might say that you can see one every day. Someone might say that, once you have seen one, you have seen them all.
I say
that, one day,
I will likely pray
to see just one more sunset.
