This is the sunset we had last night out side our place. It looks painted but it is not.

That is great DBD !! Down here in OC we had a sweet sunset on Saturday... it was the weirdest light.. kinda bone colored clouds, eerily bright, but shadowy... but cool

You dont happen to have that at 1280 x 1024 do you? That would make great wallpaper

There was no smog to help this sunset. It was all blown in to L.A., we just had the rains and there is not all that much in this area either.

It is not that often we get one like that but it was great.

Just beautiful, I bet it was a nice day the next day.

I remember one autumn a few years ago waking up and seeing a sky like that and thinking, wow, that's so impressive! Of course, a red sky like that in the morning, as we all know, is not so good. Sure enough, it rained and was sh**y all day.

Great pic dbd.

Reminds me of the sunsets we used to get in Africa - beautiful indeed.

UK sunsets? Take 1280x1024, colour it 100% gray. That's what we live with!
