This image is the last in a series of three capturing the amazing sunset and "freaky" clouds in NYC one evening last weekend. If you missed the first two, you can check them out here and here.
This shot was taken just about 8 minutes after the previous one. The sky's color turned from deep orange to purple and red. The freaky clouds have all but disappeared. The joggers and business people who had previously stopped to look up and take pics with their phone cams have all departed to resume their journey home. It's too bad though because they missed this. The spectacular sunset and clouds were like rewards to compensate my travel woes earlier in the day.
I think this is a record for me - posting on three consecutive days! Of course, I'm sort of breaking my own rule of not posting the same type of scene/images twice or more in a row. Oh well...
Better on black.

Cause somewhere in this sea of fools
The real truth is they're scared because you're brave 🎶 words by Lzzy Hale who has posted no end of trans support on various platforms this week in response to negativity in the media 👏
Don't let the only picture you take of an event be directly into the sun, or you may have to resort to tricks like this. Monson Bike Show and Swap Meet.
The result of an experiment one night.
More musical stuff over here. (You can also go buy this image, if you want).
Please note: This is an alternative version of the original www.flickr.com/photos/flatworldsedge/5022793280/ provided in response to some comments to that picture.
The original is a single all in camera light painting.
This version uses a longer exposed background (271 secs instead of 229 secs in the original) and drops in via Photoshop 7.0 just the light painted couple and not the floating hearts. Perhaps it is a slightly more pleasing exposure of the scene, and some comments had opined that the hearts were a little too whimsical or distracting. There's no GND on this one either, so the sky is a smoother purple throughout.
I much prefer the original; I like the whimsy of the hearts and the colours are slightly stranger, especially the green. Still, I thought I'd post this version having created it whilst musing over people's suggestions. Please don't feel burdened to comment on the redux, but I do hope it is of interest to those involved in the discussion.
I hope everyone understands my handwriting. It’s rare I write stuff and post it. Please ask if you cannot see or understand what it says.

Notes to self:
Honey is sticky
(really, really, really sticky)
Dripping honey goes everywhere
(containment? Honey scoffs at your puny efforts)
Honey is attracted to expensive items
(especially the REALLY expensive items)
p.s. buy more honey - this bear is starting to crystalize

I'm actually believing that no one has ever even accidentally hit that in the past 50 years. Not even one of the Kennedys! Maybe Teddy Roosevelt was the last to knock into it.

そういえば、ここ十何年、新しい物を作っていない。
作り方も忘れてしまった。

Just a note for anyone like me that is desperately looking for some Fall color around Huntsville…
There are a few very nice trees around the edge of Madison County Lake. The mountains are still all green/brown/bronze. But there are some nice yellow, orange and reds around the shore of the lake.
