Default Spectacular sunset at Sumter

The skies and view at Sumter last night, were truly spectacular. You might know I like to capture images of our lovely home town, and last night I even managed to time the "click" of the shutter as the crane flew by.

I am going to tell you one more time and I want you to listen to me you sweet girl. You are absolutely an artist with that camera. How did you get that bird to be in your picture?

They are professional quality. They are spectacular. You are amazing.

PLEASE keep them coming and I wish I had a huge giclee of one of them in my home.

What an eye....Well both of your eyes are great! And pretty too.

Ah, Thank you, Gracie. The bird frame was pure luck (and God's hand) I glimpsed the bird gliding into the shore as I was attempting to capture the color changes in the sky. I just counted, and clicked! I took a whole series of these last night, and I would be honored to present you with choices. I'll bring a thumb drive for your selection Sandra

Default Wow!!

The sunset was spectacular last night. These photos are breath taking! You should get them printed and framed so that you can either find a spot in your home for them or I'll bet people on here may like one for their home. So beautiful....

Beautiful pics. You are truly an artist.

Have you thought of having them blown up and framing them.

I bought the "Lighthouse Lights" photo posted by another member and have it framed in my bedroom. This seems to be the same quality.

Default Bright Lights at Sunset

Here is another which I took a few weeks back. Thank you for your kind comments. My camera is a little point n click, but patience is a virtue
