20. Just lovely work, CalPeg!
I absolutely adore the fourth one down. You've captured that moment when the natural light is fading, and artificial light starts taking over the night. That lone lamp stands so proudly and alone, almost taunting the sun because it's time of glory is over for yet another day.

21. My dear Nance!
How very lovely to see you tonight!

Yes, that one is near to my heart too...

I love taking photos that aren't in the "normal" horizontal orientation...

The stark lines and the light of the lamp contrasting with the sunset are so fascinating to me..

Thank you...

Human-made light blending with natural light! Beautiful!

Of course, I prefer nature's light, but what truly magnificent examples of a mix of the two!

27. My dear JeffR!
Oh, sweetie...

From such a consummate photographer as yourself!

I am extremely honored...

Would you like to have the original file?

Just PM me your email, and I will send it...


I had decided that it was too dark to get any more pics, and so I was walking back to my car, when I turned around...

And saw that scene...

I love silhouettes! It turned out just the way I'd hoped...I had the camera on program so the flash wouldn't go off, and I had to hold it very still...

Guess I did!

Thank you... :hug:
