Blues against blues..P1050856And then…wow…

The most amazing streaks of pink to the east…P1050861 And to the west..a combination of orange and pink..and gold..P1050862So..we waited and watched…the pink P1050863 in the east….until it faded…P1050864 And then the orange to the west….P1050865 P1050866   As it turns into a thin strip…..and we say goodbye…P1050871

    Excellent shots at the dunes Dawn. I love the shadow shapes as the sun westers. Then to be blessed with a beautiful sunset. I'll definately visit Death Valley again.

    With rain and coming snow I've decided not to venture to Q. Sorry I'll miss you.

    Beautiful and peaceful pictures of the dunes and the sunset. Nothing is more beautiful than complete nature and no man made stuff in the view. Since Joe and I have been on the road, I've appreciated this the most. I love people and our creations and inventions but no one can compete with God's beauty!

    I loved the way the pink sky turned the blue mountains to pink. Its like the mountains said "oh yeh...well look what I can do!"

    The Sun set at dawn is always so beautiful and eye catching. It always gives a better sun shine and lovely rainbow colors to the sky.
