It's a rare evening in southwest Florida when there isn't a sunset to be captured. So as often as circumstances permit, Sasha and I head out in search of a new venue. She, of course, could care less as long as she comes along for the ride. I usually try to make mental notes throughout the week of places where we encounter a beautiful sunset and I'm not able to shoot it at the time (usually to my chagrin).
Earlier this evening we pulled over along an expressway just before the causeway over the Caloosahatchee River (no - I didn't ignore the 'No Parking' signs ... because there weren't any). Here's one of the scenes I captured.

You might also want to wander over to Scott's blog for a look - he's the originator of the Sunset Sunday theme.

Once again you have captured one of God's beautiful goodnights.Love this scene.
Absolutely lovely. I feel like I was there....I can even hear the waves.
Thanks for the link- a great theme to start off a new week with!
Nice and it's good to see photos taken in the moment. I'm going to work on that theme more.
Really nice. To me it is really hard to beat a sunset reflected in the water.
Especially nice, Rick ... the cloud formation looks like wings.
The beautiful glow of the sun setting in the distance is so beautiful, I miss the sunsets here!
Oh how I love to play along with the sunset theme from Scott...yet time isn't on my side at those hours and the sunset isn't eigther.
But you've done a great job here my friend. Do explore the area for more so we can go with you like Sacha on your trips. ;-)))
Hugs Dag

Hi Dawn - it was a great place where I could even drown out the noise from the expressway. Feel free to join in the Sunset Sunday fun.
Thanks Chris - I have a 'store' of sunset shots in case I don't get a chance to make one. Look forward to seeing yours.
