They may look simple but you know trying to take a picture of one is never simple. Sunsets are such ever changing of nature's common everyday things we take for granted. You captured this wonderfully though

There are blue herons at the lake here and even a nest but every time they see me and my camera they become like mist, or fly off

I think they just hate me, I even leave the dogs at home so as not to make any noise but they still refuse to let me capture their cute selves!!

Well this guy was quite a ways away from me. I tried my zoom lens and it was too dark plus I didn't want to have a long exposure despite the fact he wasn't moving about much. But it was just the lighting was bad

They're such pretty birds aren't they?

Well you did a dang good job there girl!!

Yes they are magnificent birds! I love watching them move through the water and just stand forever in one place!

If they would just hold still for me they would be even nicer

I'm being super picky now huh?

Go on be honest I can take it.

thanks. I almost was late for this photo. I was going to leave and forgot that the days are closing in and the sun is starting to set now around 9:30 so I left at 9ish and though 'Crap I'm gonna miss this' but got there in time for it.

I think that is wonderful the sun setting waited for you

Here so hot I will wait till cooler weather before I try for setting sun pictures

I love the colors and clouds though in this, you guys get such lovely clouds all the time!
