More Sunsets

I was working in the kitchen around 4:15 pm on Tuesday afternoon, and out of the corner of my eye I saw the sun peeking below the cloud layer as it was about to set.  I rushed to put the telephoto lens on the camera and ran out onto the screen porch.  The first shot below gets sort of a polarizing effect through the screen – neat!  Then I ran out on the hill to get the second shot.

Sunset @ 4:15.  Wow!  And still more than a month to go before the Winter Solstice.  The sun is firmly setting in the southwest now.  I’m wondering if it will even clear the tree line along the south side of the farm during daytime in mid-December. As they say, only time will tell.
