Dusk Silhouette
Blue and yellow skiesFade across the horizonAs day turns to night I took this photo a couple of days ago when I went down to the lake to catch the sunset. I took a whole bunch of sunset shots but I actually liked the ones I took around dusk more in the end. With this…

Panorama of the Lake

Easter Sunset
Another Easter Passes quickly As the sun sets And the birds sing Happy Easter to everyone celebrating today. I hope you’re having a nice day wherever you are in the world. I spent my Sunday having a fairly quiet day at home before wandering down to the lake in the early evening, partly to walk…
