Setting Sun Montage

Watching the sun set out here brings back memories of being at home; we would be upstairs engrossed in some silly afterschool TV show, then there would be a yell from dad 'quick come downstairs and look at this beautiful sunset!'  Being your average moody, tempramental teenagers, we would come down the stairs with scowling faces, take a quick look out the door, make an appropiate comment and race back up the stairs hoping we hadn't missed the end of our show.  And do you know what they were absolutely beautiful and stunning sun sets.  The colours were amazing, oranges, pinks, purples, reds setting over the ocean.  Dad had this uncanny knack of being on the balcony at the exact right time to catch the moment.

Being on the western side of Queensland, watching the sun set is different to that on the eastern side.  As it sets the sun becomes bigger and bigger and lately because of the all the burns offs happening it can become this amazing bright pink that looks spectacular as it sets amoungst the gum trees.

Then as I turned to head back to the car,
the moon was rising on the other side

Random cloud I saw in the sky that I thought looked pretty cool
