A trip to the Mastropietro Winery to see the sunset over the lake. A friend of mine, Pietro in Torino, Italy, should enjoy the winery family name. The day was dark and dreary with storms in the area.
There was a promise in the eastern sky of an improving evening.
The evening did start to improve as it went toward dusk.
The Sun went to a golden color as the sunset approached. I took some artistic freedom and watch as things changed.
The dead tree lit up as the sun set and put on a neat show. It was our friends Liz and Rick's 27 Th wedding anniversary so it was a special time.
You can see other great skies by clicking above or on my side bar.
Oh wow,the sunset reflected in the water is a stunning picture.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,Ruth
It looks so tropical!!
ReplyDeleteYou proved that even wet days can produce great skies for Sky Watch. ;-)
ReplyDeleteOh, Wow, FG! What fabulous shots! Incredible skies especially for a wet day! Would love to sit there with a glass of wine and enjoy the sunset! Happy SWF! Enjoy your weekend!
ReplyDeleteOh I love the first and fourth ones! The fourth is my favorite - gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteMy post is here: Carletta’s Captures.
Fishing Guy, they are all stunning, but the last two are fabulous!
ReplyDeleteLovely pictures and a rainbow too. The sunset reflection got me too. Best wishes to your friends for many more happy years together.
ReplyDeleteOh so beautiful your photos are. Happy skywatching.
ReplyDeleteA great series of shots. I really enjoyed the very faint rainbow in the gray sky. Very good reflections on some of the others. They are all great.
ReplyDeleteWow FG - I love a sunset. I love how you did the reflection and it looks like the tree had a big light on it!
ReplyDeleteSome of those shots look monochrome and very effective. Great skywatch.
Wonderful series. :)
ReplyDeletevery nice series of shots...i like the last and first very much.

Great framing with the latice. And all the reflections are awesome. I love old snags for the knarled character. Excellent captures. Hope the wine was as good.
ReplyDeleteTom, Neat pictures.... I especially like the reflection of the sun in the water. AND--I like the one with the dead tree and sun.... SUPER!!!
