Sunset Series, 1

I will today start a series on the stages of a sunset. This photo is taken from the balcony/patio of our Langosta Beach condo. The sun is just above the horizon.


Each evening when we are at our condo in Tamarindo, we like to assess the sun and the clouds in late afternoon and predict whether we will get a good sunset. The answer is usually "yes." They don't call our area the "Gold Coast" without reason.



I will take you through the stages of this sunset so you can see how it evolved.



This week we are showing photos of the San Xavier del Bac Mission, the "White Dove of the Desert," just south of Tucson, Arizona, on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site.

  2. Sounds good. We do the same thing with our sunsets in The Villages. So beautiful, your gold coast!

    Thanks for your kind words on Ocala DP. I've got lots of golf course shots posted on Stone Creek Photos, too.

    Red sky at night, sailor's delight,
    Red sky at morning, sailors take warning.

  9. That is the dream of any photographer: Just sit at the balcony and make excellent photos.
    Waiting for more.
