Cloudy day ending
in a sudden burst of light,
spilling bright orange
into watery shadows
as twilight dissolves
into darkness approaching
on an autumn night. ~ms

Thanks, Julio!
All of the orange leaves have now turned to brown, so I guess the sky picked up the orange theme in memory….

Brown and covering my lawn, that is. I’ve got a virtual sea of fallen leaves just waiting for me! 🙂

Thanks Barb. I enjoyed looking through your photos and seeing the beautiful changing skies outside your window at the Sooke Harbour House on Vancouver Island. My “orange autumn sunset” was taken at the National Harbor in Maryland (close to Washington, D.C.).
