Just for the fun of it

These mountains catch an orange sunset now and then

Yeah, I wanted to post the closest I've ever gotten to capturing the Franklins when they're turned red by the sunset. They only stay red for a moment or 2 so if your camera is slow or you are then you'll miss it as I did ..... But hey, at least I caught them orange. I love this song and the video is kinda funny, I've never seen the movie but I'm going to check my streaming subscriptions to see if they have it, would be kinda fun to watch I think.

This is a beautiful shot, the sky changes all the time during sunrise and sunset, if you are not ready with your camera you miss it.

@rebelann I have missed so many photos because my camera was on the wrong floor.

So have I, and even now with my phone always with me I miss them because in that moment when I log into my phone the shot I wanted is gone.

Ohhh, I remember you telling about them . . . is this a recent photo? The orange is pretty spectacular too. The Blues Brothers - YES!

@rebelann It's amazing how the scene can change so quickly like that. It'd be cool to see a video of the changes too! Yah, I think with The Blues Brothers you either like 'em or not. I mainly like the musical parts more, though I do love Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi.

I'm not sure when I took this but it's been a while. I missed the red by a few seconds. I found the blues bros on Amazon, I'm watching it but so far I really don't like it that much ...... still, I'll give it a look see all the way through

Some of your photos are really good Rebel. You should see if you could sell some online. The eclipse one along with this one were particularily good. The photo of Tuffy with his tongue out was really novel.

Hmmm, so how does someone sell online? I don't even know what the parameters are if one is selling something

The picture is amazing. The original Blues Brothers is a stellar movie. You should watch it if you get a chance. Happy Mother's Day.

Funny bit! Hard to top Belushi in the first one, but John Goodman was an excellent choice. Very colorful scene

It's amazing how nature can paint such breathtaking scenes, even if we only catch a glimpse of them. Your photo captures the essence of those fleeting moments beautifully, even if it's just the orange hue.

It sounds like you had a beautiful moment capturing the Franklins tinged with the warm hues of sunset. Even if you didn't catch them turning red, capturing them in shades of orange still sounds like a stunning sight.
