Day is done, gone the....

This evening, as a friend and I left the college art building in Bend, Oregon, we were treated to this extraordinary view. We remarked how difficult it is to accurately photograph sunset colors especially the orange hue. Then our words fell away. It was time to simply take in the moment and feel its grandeur and not let thoughts get in the way.

Wow, you captured some gorgeous, textured clouds. I do find the orange hard to get sometimes. Other times it fills the lens right up. I don't know what causes the difference.

Spectacular! I'm at a loss for words too (which doesn't happen very often).

There really is no way to accurate portray nature's incredible colors, but this snap is stunning.

No need for words, they can't express it. Only a paintbrush could.
