I find it fascinating to watch the metamorphosis that takes place at the setting of the sun. The changes in the lighting, the clouds, the colours, and the reflections occur literally by the minute. The ones posted below were made over a period of 15 minutes. Our Creator saw fit to paint a glorious end to the day. No two are alike, and if you miss today's, He provides another tomorrow for our enjoyment, until the arrival of THE glorious day.

Hi Rick.. you're a man after my own heart. These photos are absolutely beautiful.. I just love the sky & it's ever changing beauty. Thanks for sharing .. I actually have some photos on my blog at the moment of the clouds in the setting sun. Not as good as yours but they were beautiful skies too.
Wonderful fifteen minutes :)

Breathtaking! I may want to borrow a photo for my blog, if it's ok with you (with credit to you, of course). My camera covets yours!!
Thank you so much for your comments :D
I love this photos! Beautiful :D
Wow Rick! Those photo's are so glorious! I love watching the sun setting, it's so lovely. Always a great way to end the day. And the best bit is, it sets out the back, where my bedroom window faces, so I get to watch it. When it's not cloudy that is.. Haha.
Wonderful, Rick. Was this right before or after a storm?
And fyi -- the flowers in the pop can are wild prairie roses. :)
What extraordinary colors ... He paints the sky so majestically.
Awesome sky captures. Whenever I look up - it takes my mind to what lies beyond. And things yet to come. You captured it perfectly....
Beautiful pictures with beautiful comments ending with a beautiful song. Glorius day indeed!
A perfect start to the day. I will return to the post again and again.
Rick these are extremely beautiful photos as usual, I see you saved the best one for last, in my opinion. Enjoy your week!
You did a great job capturing the changes in the sky. The color are really interesting. No two sun rises or sunsets are the same. They each bring a uniqueness to it. Thank you for sharing your experience.

Hi Saz - another sunset lover ;-) Then you're lucky to have the sun set right outside your bedroom - we have the same out the back of our house - along with an unobstructed view. Thank you !
Thank you, Nancy - no, there weren't any storms - just amazing cloud formations. Thanks for the heads up on the flowers (I should have recognized them since we used to have lots when we lived in Alberta !).
Thanks Susan - ours is just to enjoy and capture - with our minds and cameras.
Been a Casting Crowns fan for years. Thanks for adding the visuals!

The heavens declare the glory of God, the skies proclaim the work of His hands...beautiful photos!
Beautiful. I too love a good sky. I've got a post somewhere on my blog where I took photo's of the sky in four directions over 5 minutes and the changes were amazing.
