Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky.
A very beautiful park "Sahid Mangal Pandey Uddan"(Nishan Ghat) facing the Ganges at Barrackpore .Mangal Pandey (About this sound listen (help·info); 19 July 1827 – 8 April 1857), was an Indian soldier who played a key part in events immediately preceding the outbreak of the Indian rebellion of 1857.Mangal Pandey was a sepoy (private) in the 34th Bengal Native Infantry (BNI) regiment of the British East India Company. While contemporary British opinion considered him a traitor and mutineer, Pandey is widely regarded as a freedom fighter in modern India. In 1984, the Indian government issued a postage stamp to commemorate him. His life and actions have also been portrayed in several cinematic productions.
Taken on January 2nd of this year, this was one of a big series of images taken during an epic nature walk with Lisa and I's parents (who were both in town and staying with us for the holidays) before we took them to a very nice dinner and drove them all back to the airport.
This was a magical evening; an incredible sunset, nice temperatures (although it does look cold here it was fairly warm), the dogs were having a blast, we saw various wildlife (deer, a beaver, a muskrat, etc), and we had a really good long walk, too!
A great night full of fun memories, and a perfect way to cap off our Holidays!
p.s. - Note the tiny one third full moon far up above the sunset clouds...
I have taken many,many sunrise,sunset pictures.
This is my favorite and I almost missed it.

This is the sun setting behind Lake Sam Rayburn in East Texas.
Have a great Sunday and week ahead. One click makes it pop :-)
Thanks for dropping by.
Stopped at the Rest Area near Parowan, UT and had been checking out Flickr when I looked up... Only had a few minutes before the best of the sunset was over. So glad I stopped and even more glad I looked up. Sometimes it's good to be a trucker.
Not sure what the false sun is above the setting sun--some type of refraction which probably has name.
Throwback to this summer, when I biked around Friesland for a couple of days.
Just my bike, my camera and me... loved it.
Taken at Harlingen Harbor, Friesland, The Netherlands.
Thanks to everyone who takes the time to comment and/or fave.
