Summer's Farewell Sunset

This was taken a few days ago, at roughly 4:30 pm.

I know I should expect it, but somehow every year the end of fall catches me off guard. The next thing I know the sun is setting before 5 o'clock and it seems to be dark and cold all the time. I'm going to miss those hours of warm daylight during the winter.

But stepping on my porch a few days ago I was treated to an incredible sunset on a relatively warm afternoon. One final hurrah before the last leaves drift from the trees and it's officially coat time all the time.


As an aside, I've always wanted to do time-lapse photography and sights like these are pushing me closer to finally getting around to it. Also: I need that Sony camera that can do panoramic shots because then this picture would've been a lot easier to get.
