With the day beginning as had yesterday I planned to visit a different sunset location later this afternoon, and therefore settled back into my Priestley literature analysis.
A dark-browed shower descended at the time we were due to set off, so I carried on reading with half an eye trained on
the skies while the sun deliberated on whether or not to put in a appearance.
The first shot in the above gallery was reflected in the casement gable window through which I need to poke my lens for any images from above.
Finally, from the car park of The Royal Oak I was able to photograph the red-gold orb playing peepo! on its way to bed.
The bangers and mash which we all enjoyed for dinner this evening consisted of a mix of pork and garlic and pork and chives sausages, mashed potatoes as creamy as usual, crunchy carrots, tender runner beans, and toothsome sweetcorn, with which Jackie drank Peroni and I drank more of the Australian Shiraz.
Thank you for your perseverance (and driver)!
Thank you so much, Merril
Your patience was rewarded with a lovely sunset! I like the textural gray skies, too.
Thank you very much, Liz
You’re welcome, Derrick.
Great title…and such beautiful photos! Being patient paid off! 🙂
Love the clouds and sun as a backdrop for the trees. ❤️
So glad the sun always comes back to see us every morning. 🙂

Sunsets are worth waiting for. I like your sense of humor.

Sunsets can add lots to a photograph. As usual, supper* sounded succulent. (*while growing up, we always called dinner, supper)

Terrific photos of the dramatic, ominously dark clouds and the glorious sunset finale.

My pleasure, Derrick.
That header photo with the low, dark cloud is incredible.
“Peepo” must be our version of Peek-a Boo. Both of them ridiculous. lol
