the birds all fly away home

I love the color of the sky at dusk!

Linnea said...

Beautiful composition: the moon, birds, candied-colored sky and terrific silhouettes...

What a great color of the sky! We don't get much of that color around here.

Here's mine.

A lovely summertime bight sky. That's what it looks like here very often. I think we may be on the same latitude. About 52 degrees North?

The birds have to sleep too. They also have to free the air space for bats! :-)

I love the purple tint in this photo, also the moon is fantastic.

Have a nice weekend

Pretty evening atmosphere! Delightful!

Irene: we are quite a bit further south - same latitude as Rome (40 degreees north)

A beautiful photo of one of my favorite hours of the day - I love a lingering twilight when the streetlights come on.

What a pretty sky!

Irene said...

Oops, miscalculated you completely there!

Beautiful capture ... definitely worth the time to embiggen to see the birds in flight ;--)
Hugs and blessings,

Louise said...

Beautiful colors. And what a bonus is the moon!

VioletSky said...

Dusk is so pleasant Vicki. Ritsumei, we seem to be getting more of this colour than other combinations.

I hadn't thought about the bats needing the space, chrome3d.

Greyscale Territory, after a stormy afternoon, this was very calming! And, yes, "lingering twilight", is also my favourite, Deborah

I was happy to see the moon and the streetlights together, Louise and thanks, Guy, Gina, Sanna for the appreciation.

VioletSky said...

Thanks, Linnea and Angie, they all fell together nicely - with a bit of wandering around the parking lot!

Storyteller, I'm glad you embiggened!

Thank you, Ida.
