Friday Fotos- Sunsets

 

I decided a few days ago that this Friday I would post a Sunset photo from the selection I have taken this week.

Unable to choose my favourite I have instead posted four which were all taken this week of the sun setting over Lago di Bolsena.

I just love watching sunsets. These were the ones I was fortunate enough to witness, the first two photos are from Tuesday evening and the second two yesterday .

I would also like to mention that none of these photos have been edited they are completely natural shots. I am not sure I would know how to improve them if I wanted to, but I think these are beautiful just as they are.

    Magnificent photos. We get good sunsets in the Charente but we are not next to water and that makes such a big difference. The reflection in amazing. Diane

    Barva. And compliments to the fellow upstairs who arranged for the light and cloud arrangements...

    I've been gone a while from these relaxing lakeside pages. But now I'm back!

    You are right, sunsets are beautiful and so are your pictures. The lake looks as though the pink light were coming from it, instead of reflecting off it. There are some scenes in nature that you do not just look at, but that you can feel.

    Ohh my, I see the sky change in the most amazing orange and pink colours until the sun disappears in the gem of the cleanest lake in Europe, Lago di Bolsena! I think your great post is incomplete as long as you don't advice us the best restaurant if I come over there one day?

    :)

    Inspired now to go to a lake side but no chance in Istanbul:(

    What gorgeous fotos. I dont often get to see your pictures, because they dont load on my slow home connection. Sometimes I hang around in the library and read blogs, then Iàm reminded what I'm missing. <must remember to check back more often :)

    Yes they are lovely - and just as they are. Don't edit them! xxxM (I have occasionally tried to take photos of good sunsets from our west facing bedroom window but of course there's no way of avoiding the electricity and phone cables that are across the yard - so that's definitely an editing job!) xx

    Carol - Thanks :)

    Gina - I bet you and your magic touch could take some beautiful shots in the Lago di Bolsena region. Come and visit soon.

    Maggie - Even if I knew how to edit photos I certainly would not have done :)
