I've been working in the studio for most of the day trying to put in a certain amount of time and discipline. I was also enjoying it, although I haven't been well for a few days.
As it was nearing four o'clock I decided to drive myself down to this little park in my neighborhood and watch the sunset. It was quite nippy, but peaceful and lovely.
How fortunate to have these beauties show up for Animal Wednesday!
Three more followed behind. How can they handle that freezing water?
This was the finale!! I swear to you this is an untouched photo. The only thing I did was try a few pictures on the "sunset" setting. Wow! I also zoomed way in. That could be it, I got too close to the fire. Glad I did though ;)
Happy Animal Wednesday!
xo♥
WOW!!!!
ReplyDeleteTalk about fire in the sky; there is nothing like a Winter Sunset.

It was cold here today; quite cold but no pretty sky. I do have some shots of a sundog from the other day I need to post.
Happy studio time and feel better!
