  1. Hello John,
    I hope the week has started well for you, they certainly seem to go quickly.
    You've shared three beautiful sunsets, the second one is my favourite.
    Nice to see the ships too.

    Take care.

    All the best Jan

  2. I like the third one with the sun rays coming down through the break in the cloud.

  3. #1 is my favorite with the mountains and the water and painted sky. You certainly live in a beautiful part of the country. We have water but no mountains here in WI. I miss the mountains of PA where I was raised. I posted results of the centerpiece choices on my blog today and might have teased you a bit. Have a wonderful week- Diana

  5. The first is my favorite but that doesn't mean to say that they are all good.

  6. You're asking us to choose between sunsets? Can't be done. They're all wonderful and different.

  9. Hi John -- All of your sky shots are wonderful (as always). I especially enjoyed the one with sunstreaks because those always seem a little magical to me. I happily caught up on a few posts, so this comment covers several -- the part about the tides, with the ship illustration was so interesting -- I like your new hummingbird feeder a lot and am actually a bit envious! As always love seeing the beautiful place where you live and walk

  11. I don't think one can ever get enough sunsets (and sunrises)! I have a hard time picking a favorite here, I'm torn between #1 and #3. All three are unique and beautiful.

  12. All three sunset photos are so pretty but it is the third one that draws me in! When I see sights like that, to me it feels like more than rays streaming through the clouds! It gives me a similar feeling that I feel when I see the beams shining from the light on top of a lighthouse!

  13. Hello John :=)
    October weather has not prevented you from taking some great sky shots. although the colours are noticeably quieter, and in keeping with autumn . I usually like the sunsets with the beautiful mountains in the background, but today I'm going for the last shot with the sun's rays beaming down through the clouds. It's a lovely picture and It's a moment in time which you may never capture again. I enjoyed the short video, and seeing the Giant Marine Crane at sea.
    All the best John, and I hope your wife has fully recovered, and doing well.

  14. They are all so beautiful—it's hard to choose a favorite.
    Thank you for sharing these stunning sunset moments with us all, John.
