Many thanks to all of you, Dann, Jacques, izahorizonta, Vera, Anita, Miguel, Tamás, Andrea, Karen, and Pierre-Jean, and for the YS, Jacques, Karen and Pierre-Jean.

This whole photo was "an extra" for me. My husband and I were returning from a restaurant where we had celebrated our wedding anniversary (#42). When we started back, there was a band of clouds obscuring the sun, but about halfway home, the sun got beneath it and we came to a village with a lovely waterside park. So we stopped. Did we sit romantically on a bench to watch the sunset? No!! I clicked away, hoping to get one good shot, and here is the best of the lot.

Hey Marilyn, i don't know when your wedding anniversary was but i wish you and your husband to congratulate. Happy birthday !!!

Greetings, Jacques

Marilyn Whiteley, on August 28, 2008, said:

Thank you, Jacques. It was yesterday, Aug. 27. By today's standards, I think 42 years is doing very well--and it's been 42 wonderful years! Marilyn

What a wonderful sunset, Marilyn! The colours are really stunning and the entire scenery is so beautiful and peaceful! You don't see a sunset like this very often and I understand very well that you simply had to take pictures! BTW, I'd like to congratulate you on your 42nd wedding anniversary and I wish you many more happy years!! Best wishes to you and your husband, Anne

Tony Reid, on August 29, 2008, said:

Hello! This looks waaaay cool!! Well done marilyn. I am most impressed.

Cheers, Tony in New Zealand

Marilyn Whiteley, on August 29, 2008, said:

Thank you, Gabor, Andre, and Tony, for your very nice comments.

It was a very beautiful evening, but I've realized something else: digital photography lets you continue to enjoy a scene that you really can't look at very long while you're there ... because you'll go blind from the sun it you try!!

Cheers, Marilyn

Hank Waxman, on September 3, 2008, said:

Honey of a shot, Marilyn.

Hank

Marilyn Whiteley, on September 3, 2008, said:

Thanks, Hank. With this and with a sunset on which you commented a couple of weeks ago, I've become conscious of an advantage of digital photography. You can photograph the sun and later enjoy--and study--the scene, while at the time you scarcely could look at it!

Marilyn

Hank Waxman, on September 3, 2008, said:

True, but this shot has a lot more happening than a sunset for the eye to enjoy. :-)

Hank

Marilyn Whiteley, on September 3, 2008, said:

Yes, Hank. But with the sun still so strong it was hard to see and appreciate the duck, the thin line of trees, etc. Now I can!

Tomorrow afternoon we start back to Canada. End of the summer season, alas!

Marilyn
