My Sunday Photo... Sunset

It's been quite some time since we've seen a beautiful sunset here.
Yesterday was the first time, so to celebrate I thought I'd post it for my Sunday Photo and link up with Photalife.
The ruin you can see in this photo is part of an old barn that is actually situated in my garden. 
I love this reminder of days gone by, when the grounds were part of a working farm.
Today I'm also linking up with Mersad over at Through my lens,
Thanks for stopping by my place.
I hope you enjoy glorious sunrises and sunsets in this coming week.

    1. Thanks... well I think it is pretty special Tracey, but it can require a serious amount of work. Now that the weather has started to improve I will need to be a busy bee... out there at every opportunity.
      It's a good job I like it!

    1. I have rather a soft spot for my ruined barn Melody. There's also another on the other side of our grounds but unfortunately that is just rubble on the ground. Lots of brilliant rocks if we ever decide to build a pond though.

    1. Hehe... No-one was more surprised than me to be first on the linky Wren. So far since this first sunset we've seen one every night now that the temperature has thankfully started to rise.
      Long may they continue!

  18. That is a stunning sunset. I don't get the horizon view any longer in the mornings. I miss it. All the colorful display is at the horizon and low in the sky. Thanks for sharing!! :)

    1. Aww that's a shame Rita... but then there are so many more advantages for where you are now. I'll be sure to keep taking them and sharing them with you!
      I'm hoping there will be many more now that the spring weather has arrived. We had our hottest day of the year yesterday and both Muffy and myself made full use of it... in different ways obviously... she lay and rolled on the grass loving the warmth, whilst I weeded, dug borders and re-potted plants!
      Next time I'd like to come back as a well pampered pooch please!

    1. Well this is the smaller of the barns Sandy, but unfortunately the larger one is just rubble on the ground. I think they must have used some of it's stones for building the house.
      I'm very attached to this ruin though. It's amazing how much it can add to a garden.
      The gardens only just waking up ... so not really ready for opening to the public just yet. When it is then I'll try to remember to post a pic!
