Default The Villages in the Dark

It's a challenge to take photos when the light is going...although of course, we do have beautiful sunsets. I wanted to try something different. Pictures of the Villages after the sunsets are gone. Hope you like these:

actually, I didn't use a tripod, but I did lean against stuff to take the photos. I have a tripod, but I keep forgetting to bring it with me.

I can't say enough about your remarkable ability to capture the beauty of The Villages at night.

The pictures you have posted go beyond photographs. They are works of art.

Thank you so much for sharing them.

I think this was just another covert effort to show how much your loving the Villages now that you're a full timer and punishing us wanna be's

I love the coppery, metallic texture in the photos. Really unique and beautiful.
