The first day of summer this year was beautiful! The weather was perfect and my only complaint is the day passed all too quickly. Here's a few sunset shots I captured on our first day of summer.
The first one the sun was starting to slowly go down, it was taken at about 10:15pm.
This next one was at about 10:30 - 10:45p.m.; I shot a lot of photos so I can't pinpoint the exact time.
Thank you Scott for inspiring Sunset Sunday, a great reminder for me to get out and appreciate our beautiful sunsets and nice long days.
Darlin, these are most lovely, and I so appreciate them, as we haven't had very many this pretty lately!
ReplyDeleteKaren it's such a blessing to see such beauty, beauty I love to share with the world!

Thank you Ola!
DeleteNice job. That sun stays up pretty late up there. Our sunsets are at about 9:20 here now. If you stay up for blue hour you'll really be up late.
ReplyDeleteScott if I stayed up lately for blue hour I'd be cooking breakfast! We make up for these long days in the winter time when sometimes we only get about 8 hours of light, it could be a bit more but it sure seems like only 8 hours.
DeleteHad to come back and see these - gorgeous colours, Darlene !
ReplyDeleteEnjoy all those late evenings this week.
Thank you Rick, I am enjoying my late evenings but unfortunately it's on the computer and not outdoors. It's homework time and time to get it done.
DeleteThe colors, we know who to thank for those! :-)
Have a wonderful week my friend, cheers.
Gorgeous shots dear Darlin! I love sunset. Wish you a nice new week. Go slowly!!!

DeleteHugs from Canada!
Really like the rich orange in the second shot. It was a very beautiful day.
ReplyDeleteDays don't go by quickly until you're retired.
Red I'm not retired yet and my days aren't long enough, they fly right on by. I'm looking forward to more gorgeous days, bring them on... well after the work is done! lol
DeleteHave a wonderful week!
so beautiful...the longest day, as we begin the trek back to the shortest day! these days are going by way to fast for me!
ReplyDeleteTheanne I'm not going to think of it as the days will be getting shorter, I'm just going to enjoy each beautiful moment in time, well as much as I possibly can. My glass is half full! :-)
DeleteHave a wonderful week, cheers.
"To welcome the summer, whose first day is ending" is a line from a rather wonderful song called “Wozzy with Cider”.
ReplyDeleteWe have just past through the longest day of winter – so in my case its “to welcome the spring, whose first day is distant”!
Cheers – Stewart M
Stewart it's all uphill for you from here! I love that line, it's so appropriate for this photo! Thanks for sharing it with me.
DeleteHave an amazing week, and your spring is just around the corner!
Cheers.
