Three on Thursday

I was driving home from Ryan's house last week and noticed the striking clouds. I'm always an admirer of interesting clouds, so I pulled over to take a picture:


I drove a little further and almost gasped when I came down the hill to the Delaware River and saw the sunset:


It was a stunning sunset and the reflection on the river made it even more so. I parked so I could walk out on the bridge and took lots more pictures.


Normally I'm concerned about driving in the dark, and especially just after sunset. There are so many deer around and they dart out in front of cars all the time. I'm afraid I won't see them in time to avoid a collision. But that evening the beauty overtook any fear of deer and I just couldn't get enough of the sunset. I'm so grateful that I happened to be in the right place at the right time.

  1. Oh My! What gorgeous pictures Bonny. I'm with you about driving at dusk, but I'm so glad you stopped to take some pictures - truly spectacular! I've always said that Fall (particularly November...and even into early December) sunsets are just the best!

  2. Well, words do not come to me to describe how powerful those photos are, Bonny. Stunning. I don't think I have ever seen a sunset that striking. I would have stopped as well, just to let it sink in. Thanks for sharing this!

    1. It was definitely a case of the right place at the right time. Another 10 minutes either way and I would have missed it!
