Hi everyone,I am just going to share to you one of my best captured photo about nature. Hubby and I were on our way home when I saw this beautiful sunset. It truly mesmerized me so I grabbed my camera and took few pictures of it. I was so amazed how it turned out. I hope you like it but any comment is welcome. What do you usually feel when you see a beautiful scenery around you or when you are at nature? For me as a nature lover person, I always feel relaxed and free when I am with nature or when I see beautiful sceneries.

Morning Marie. You have really done a good job to have snapshot such a gorgeous photo about sunset for us to share. I love to see sunset as well and sometimes when I see a beautiful one, I like to use my digital camera to take one as well. But right now I don't have such a sunset photo that I took in my computer, otherwise I would like to share it with you as well. Thanks for the photo, Marie.

That is a great photo! I love nature so much...I do wish that I would have more time to stop and look at it. Next week I will be on my vacation...I would be enjoying the fall season and will take some photos to share here.

You did a wonderful job. What kind of camera did you use? What did you use for film? Shutter speed? I would be amazed if evening or night pictures came out if I took them, too. Mine don't turn out. I envy you. I also feel relaxed and free in Nature. Someday, I hope to make part of my living by responcibly gathering things in Nature (only a percentage of what available so nothing is overused). Take care

Thank you for the nice words here writersedge! I am using just an ordinary digicam with a 12x zoom, it is samsung model. So far, I love this camera because it is handy and it really captures good pic.

Yes.The photo of you captured is very charming.However,the beautiful nature will disappear quickly.Maybe I`m a pessimistic person.

Yes, I do. Gazing into it, I felt a mixture of excitement and peace. So may of us have a nostalgic relationship with nature. Somehow, from the comfort of our urban or suburban homes, we long for the beauty, the simplicity, the mystery of untamed nature. Thanks for posting it.

I also observed a lot of us here are inclined into nature. That is good to know so at least we know that many of us would take our part to take care mother earth.

Shopping Centre Ceiling. - Photo I took of the ceiling in a big shopping centre
that is a lovely sunset, I have just starting taking my camera with me where ever I go, you just never know when you are going to see something that is worth taking a photo of. Just yesterday I took a friend shopping and while I was waiting for her I looked up at the ceiling of the shopping centre and took this photo of what I thought is a lovely way to bring light into a place...

Same here, every time I am out of the house my camera is always with me. That ceiling makes the light pass through it perfectly. It's a good way of illuminating the place.

like you I'm always amazed at sights like that. i've seen a few beautiful sunsets while walking home too, although I know in your case it probably felt romantic because you were with your hubby, and in my case its only dramatic and relaxing because I'm usually alone. LOL when I'm going home I would have to pass by our lake and there I would see the sun sinking among the low-lying clouds in the horizon. its really beautiful and it would always make me feel melancholic unless I stop myself and just continue walking. ^__^;;

Truly what makes this picture really special is the feeling you get when looking at it. It pulls you in. I can understand why you must of been compelled to take its picture.

You are right coffeanyone! I guess it is the combination of colors that makes it so attractive to look at.

Yes, I like it. In one of my offered discussion i stated that setting of the sun is one of the best time of the say and one of the most wonderful to look at. I used to see the setting of the sun almost everyday and when it is sunny. We are near the sea where we can see the setting of the sun very naturally.
