Showy sunsets have been hard to come by recently in the Shenandoah Valley. Either the skies have been clouded over, or there have been no clouds at all. When friends invited us over to view the sunset from their backyard, I was hoping for the best. I got my wish.
As we sat around the fire pit in the coolness of the early evening, the day’s high, thin clouds hung around long enough to provide a colorful show to the waning day. In the foreground, the silhouettes framed the reddish clouds hanging over the Allegheny Mountains, which mark the boundary between the Commonwealth of Virginia and West Virginia.
“Day is Done” is my Photo of the Week.

A beautiful moment enjoyed in the company of friends. Doesn’t get much better.
North of the border we have recently been blessed with great sunsets. I take a deep breath and enjoy the moment before it fades. Simple pleasure.
