Nice pictures, great light and color, without a doubt my favorite is the first with that beautiful light and color in the clouds. Have a good night.

I have to learn from you how to take the sunset photos at the sea. I live 5 min walk to a Pt, the tip, and many people go to take photos, I have not been at sunset or sun rise, or moon photos.

Yesterday, or last evening, my husband saw a lonely man with a tripod in the gale, waiting for the sunset, and it was cloudy.

Les couchers de soleil permettent de magnifiques reflets dorés ... Les rayons de la troisième photo sont en plus très réussis !

What Can I Say?

What Can I Say?
I'm interested in almost everything. Use to like to travel, but it's too expensive now. I take Tai Chi classes, swim, volunteer in a Jump-start program for pre-schoolers. I'm an avid reader and like nearly everyone these days I follow politics avidly. I'm a former teacher and Special Projects Coordinator for a Telecommunications company, Assistant to the President of a Japanese silicon wafer manufacturing company. Am now enjoying retirement -- most of the time. I have two daughters, one son-in-law and two sons scattered all over the country. No grandchildren.
