When the sun begins to slip towards the horizon, as the slanting rays begin to light the clouds and throw the skyline into silhouette, the breeze dies and the air stills, the birds’ chatter softens and dies, and the cameras come out. I have posted a lot of travel shots but it’s time for something home-grown – these are some of the sunsets I have enjoyed right here at home – click on any photo to enter the gallery.

While I like to photograph a sunset, I haven’t painted very many but I leave you with these -

Fabulous paintings, Lynne, that bottom one is just dreamy! xxx Ailsa

Thank you Heidi – that one went to my daughter – it’s her sunset view.

Mark, sorry for tardy reply – you went to spam for some reason. Thank you very much for your kind comment on my paintings.
Is there a more spectacular way to end the day then to view a sunset? Wonderful photos and paintings, Lynne.
Thanks, Robin – happy writing and come back soon.
It’s such a treat to view the gorgeous photos of sunsets and your beautiful paintings. I like all three.
Thank you, Amy – you’re great
The paintings are lovely – and I love the photos – especially Pete’s Lake 1 with the kayaks!
Yes, that one is gorgeous and the photo credit goes to my daughter.
