Sunset Sunday Photo

Another busy enjoyable weekend with having our daughter come to stay... and we're only half way through!
Last night we were treated to a wonderful sunset.
It came as a surprise really after a day of rain. 
It was like drawing back the curtains... suddenly the sun shone through.
I've taken the same shot over a short period of time... to just highlight what a difference a few minutes can make.
You can see the rain drops still hanging from the cow parsley like bright jewels.
I hope you have a wonderful weekend and thanks for visiting my place. 
 As usual I'm linking up with  'My Sunday Photo' with Photoalife and Mersad over at Through my lens

  2. Our evenings have been just the same, sometimes the sun breaks through just in time. I love how you have captured the stages.

  16. I always think there is something special about a sunset, and half of its treasure is taking the time to admire it's richness and change of colours - sounds like it was a great end to an enjoyable day.

    1. I couldn't agree more Molly.
      We are lucky to have it growing all around our garden and it's wonderful to see all of the bees enjoying it too.
