Colorful and Striking

As the sun settles lower on the horizon so does my head settle into a pillow. If I’m lucky I’ll catch a glimpse of the sunset. Sometimes it’s from the road, other times it’s from camp or home.

This sunset arrived at the end of a storm and while the sun attempted to peek out between clouds it grew to a very bright glow until twilight blinked and the sun was gone.

Warming Up After an Idaho Stormy Afternoon

From Wyoming, this sunset also followed an afternoon of summer showers. Following a somewhat crazy, racing the thunder kayak outing, I enjoyed watching this tranquil sunset end our day. Of course it was from inside the camper, Maximus. The fly population along the river bank was atrocious.

A desert sunsets never disappoint with its rainbow of pinks, oranges and purples marking the end of a quiet evening. This was in northern Nevada near Spencer Hot Springs. It was a new BLM boondocking discovery that capped off a mundane drive with this artful display.
