We took a trip to Shenandoah National Park this evening to see if we could get a proper sunset, any sunset as they have eluded us here in Heritage Hunt for the past week.  Then, the only place near here really suitable is the Manassas Battlefield a few miles away.  The colors were spectacular tonight as these shown below at  Big Meadows at Shenandoah National Park about an hour west of here. This is what happened during about a minute or so the western fiery red sun lit these eastern clouds:



The one above is at Big Meadow and is looking east along a deer trail.   The one below is a composite of three pictures blended in my camera, a Fuji X-E1 and taken with a Zeiss 12/2.8 lens. The pictures are about thirty minutes apart so the light and color does vary some:


And talk about a place to settle in and write, this would really be the place but I would have to just schedule writing and picture taking as otherwise I would be tempted to just run around snapping more pictures!
