I took this photograph last night during another evening walk at Obear Park, here in Beverly, MA. I have gone there so often this summer and have taken so many photos of the sunset that yesterday I had decided to leave my camera in my purse. But when I saw the view, I couldn't resist. Some of the sunsets have been quite spectacular and dramatic, but this one was gentle, with a lovely apricot sky. krstinalynn on Flickr: Posted a Photo

Last night I took a couple of photographs during a walk at the Cummings Center Pond, here in Beverly, MA. It was around 7:30 pm, and the sky was beautiful, and so was the water. Tonight I cropped one of the photos to get this composition. I wanted to emphasize the contrasting patterns of clouds, trees, water, and fence. krstinalynn on Flickr: Posted a Photo  randubnick on Flickr: Posted a Photo 
This is the last of a series of sunset photos that I took on August 18 at Obear Park, here in Beverly, MA. I was amazed when I saw the setting sun that day, and started taking pictures. The sky kept changing, so I kept photographing. If you want an idea of how fast the sky was changing, this photograph was taken at 7:57. To see what the sky looked like five minutes earlier, see the photo that I posted here yesterday. randubnick on Flickr: Posted a Photo 
This is another photograph from the series of pictures I took on August 18 as the sun was setting. I was in Obear Park here in Beverly, MA. The sunset was amazing, so I started taking pictures. And the sky kept changing, so I kept shooting. This photo was taken at 7:52 PM; if you want to see how fast the sky was changing, compare to my post of August 21, which was also taken on August 18 at 7:50. Tonight I cropped the original image, and lightened the shadows just a bit because the exposure was overtaken by the strong light of the sunset. randubnick on Flickr: Posted a Photo 
Here is another image from the set of sunset photos I took on August 18 at Obear Park. This one has been digitally edited. I liked the original image because it showed the reflections of the sunset in the water. But some silhouetted branches on the shore were spoiling the composition and partially obstructing the view. So I opened the image in Painter and used a digital airbrush and some cut and paste (and a little bit of posterizing) along the bottom edge of the photo to get the branches out of the way. Then I cropped the image to get this composition. randubnick on Flickr: Posted a Photo 
This is another photograph from an evening walk at Obear Park on Wednesday night. Going to the park around sunset has become a bit of a routine this summer, because here in Beverly, MA, dogs aren't allowed in waterfront parks before 7:30. So lately I have seen some beautiful sunsets, which is a treat because around here, it is surprisingly difficult to get an unobstructed view of the Western sky. So on Wednesday night, I was prepared for a lovely view, but I was not prepared to be amazed! I started taking pictures right away, but it took a couple of tries to get the exposure right. This photo is just as it came out of the camera, apart from a bit of cropping. The light kept changing, so I took more photos, and I might use some of them as the basis for oil bar paintings. krstinalynn on Flickr: Posted a Photo  krstinalynn on Flickr: Posted a Photo
