Sunset in Long Island

Watching the sun go down…..

As I drove along Ocean parkway in Long Island, N.Y. which is a thin strip of land along the ocean, I could see the sun setting and this is what I captured which I am sharing with you. This a place I frequent even in the winter to find my center.

I hope you can get the feeling I got that evening as I watched the sun go down that evening.

    I sure like yours a lot so I think so. It is defenitely a shot of mine but with one big difference. I would probably not have managed to get the red colour of the sun the sane justice you have. I am not so good at getting that red sun without getting it to light.

I don’t get to see many beautiful sunsets in the middle of the country, outside the city, no water or mountains around, etc., but yes! – I WAS able to get that feeling from your excellent photo!

  Yes, I know the feeling, I have felt that many a time, so when I get the opportunity to see one I try to capture it. Thanks for your lofty compliments.

So stunning. I love the way the glowing orange light is at the centre of the drifting clouds. The water is so still holding the space. What a wonderful view. I can see how this is a beautiful place to find centre in. Thank you so much for sharing this gem 😉 a total treasure

  The pleasure is multiplied when what you share is accepted, and on top of it the admirations become studs of precious stones in the crown such as yours.

What a beautiful photo! I used to enjoy the sunsets in Malibu during my 40 years living in Southern California, but I had to go and fall in love with someone in Tennessee! LOL 💝

  So……do U like Tennessee?
  Well, if U don’t then there is a sacrifice U have made. It looks like it was worth it.
  
  Thanks for stopping by…..I just love the sunrise and sunset over the oceans horizon. There is something so, so magical.about it.

    I love Tennessee in the fall, winter and spring – not so much in the summer cuz I can’t stand high humidity… lol

    Me too, humidity is suffocating, New York is know for it-at least sometimes-in the summer.
