Sometimes,
maybe once or twice in your life, you see a sunset so stunning - so....mesmerising....that you wish you could capture it for all to see.
Incredibly, I was able to snap this at around 7 last night, at work.
Paradise.
Carolyn - you are truly lucky to be there today.
Hmmm - am I jealous or what?
Thanks Eddie, almost matches the valley mist I saw this morning. Isn't autumn beautiful! Blackberries (of the edible kind) all round.
Um, am I missing something? Sorry Eric.
I think I can see what you mean, Eddie, though sadly the camera hasn't served you as well as you might have liked.
But I know what you mean - Some sunsets take your breath away.
Eddie - If you're reading this - Perhaps you could send us a Scottish sunset tonight? If it doesn't interfere with your recording? Or perhaps one of the crew could take it on your behalf? I've just checked the weather forecast for Dunfermline - light showers with some sunshine, and the sunset is at 19.38 (I think that usually refers to the time the sun disappears from the horizon, so the colours will begin before then - Correct me, froggers, if you know otherwise!)
If you're staying up there for the weekend, take your brolly, for rain is forecast for Saturday and Sunday.

Appreciative comment on wrong thread- sorry!

Ahhhhhh, pretty as a picture!
DIY
Not wanting to blow my own trumpet, but I think I can go one . This wasn't altered ot photoshopped at all :))
ah but FF you can make images better by not using the auto settings on you camera. Saying that, it is a good sunset. Must try and find a one I've done.
Oh, I know that, Stewart. What I meant to say was that I hadn't played about with the image after it was taken :)
grrr How can I be malicious after 2 & 1/2 hours???
Not bad considering it was taken on a point and shoot Nokia N-95
Doesn't quite come to FF's standard but how about a
jonnie, How come you know what eddies phone is?
RJD, That's a nice sunrise :)
SUnrise implies an early morning. SoI am always impressed!
I have an N95 - it's a 5megapixel camera!
RJD Are you e bay ing it when the 6megapixels one comes along?
We recently drove under the end of a rainbow, which I didn't know was possible. Unfortunately, we didn't have a camera handy.
David McNickle (17):
You may (or may not) be interested to know that if you go up in an aeroplane you can see circular rainbows (given the usual sun+rain thing).
I always find that photos of rainbows never do the original justice.

David McNickle (17) - Sorry to be disagreeable, but you didn't drive under the end of a rainbow, at least not one that YOU could see. Somebody else might have seen you do it, but you couldn't have seen yourself do it!
Stewart M (16) - I use about 10% of the functions that it provides. It came "free" as part of the company deal with service provider. It will "trickle down" the company when I get an even better one next year - I'll probably only use 5% of the functions of that one.
This is the excuse I have been waiting for....a froggy friend told me this would work, and it's the first time I've tried it....if you click on my name, it should take you to my sunset photo.......?
Whey-hey!!!! Thank you Ffred....there's a drink for you on the NC Bar!
Wow - Gillian - I'm so impressed! A clever linky thingie, and a great photo. You little techie, you. All right, I admit I'm jealous.I've only just learnt how to open a second thingie (bookmark? dunno) when using the chat room, so I can look at things while chatting. So much to learn, so little time...
Is that your lasersight on the ´óÏó´«Ã½ dish Eddie shortly before you blew it to smithereens??
Lovely sunrise RJD and sunset Gillian! And I've seen your before FFred (?!!) but it's still lovely!!
my offering!
Wow, GM, that's stunning!
Annasee, my ignorance knows no bounds......! I'm not so shy about expressing it as I used to be! ;o)
Gillian & GMX - If you two are just going to show off then I'm not playing any more!
Well RJD YOU started it! :-P
We're all artists here, I see :))
You're right Fearless (27), you are -- I've just looked at all four photos -- beautiful every one.
Ah but FFred (27) what kind of artists...? :-P
Photographic artists, GM (29). Why, what kind of artist were you thinking of?
H.
I think that's a question I'd best leave unanswered, GM!
Oh now, I wasn't being malicious!
I said I'm NOT being malicious!!
I'm beginning to get a bit annoyed, now :-S
Please Mr/Mrs/Miss/Ms Moderator, let me through this time...
