Tonight's sunset. Sierra Foothills.


I just love it when a sunrise or sunset fills the frame of a w---i---d---e angle lens.
Enjoy.

I can almost see the brush strokes!

And it truly does fill the frame of your wide angle lens.

Thank you for sharing!

The mountains are one of the few things I miss about living in that area.

Some sunsets, there are clouds on both sides, so I have to choose sides.
Long story short, I guessed right. (but I did check the other side first)
Good exercise.
