Sky Watch #21
Sunsets this time of year are short lived. You see the lovely colors glowing, and before you know it, the sun sinks rapidly into the water, and is gone.
I took these pictures about a week ago. I was up by the bay, and was trying to focus on a tree that I liked, when I saw the light quality change.
I turned to my left, and saw the sky glowing red. It only lasted a moment when the glowing sun dropped quickly.
To see more beautiful skies, go to the Sky Watch site. This meme is made possible by Sandy, Wren, Louise, Klaus, Ivar and Fishing Guy, to whom we give our sincere thanks.

As I was telling Arija, it's amazing how similar our ever changing skies are! These are beautiful and look remarkably like Seattle skies. I guess it really is "one world" isn't it? Thank you for the beautiful look at your skies!
The last one is my fav .. I love the composition ..

Hi! These are breathtakingly beautiful. Lisa
It's been interesting to see how many of our skies have the same beautiful colors -- wherever. These are lovely shots, Bobbi, thank you as always for sharing the beauty!
You are so right about sunsets being short lived. We had a great one the other night. I went inside to get my camera. By the time I came out - it was gone.
Great pictures.

JoAnn greetings
Nice, bobbie - you can almost hear the sizzle as the sun slides into the water!
Those sunsets are especially beautiful!
Beautiful photos. They are so calming and neat in some way.
Thank you for sharing and happy skywatching:-)
Fleeting yes but oh so beautiful.
Wonderful photos of the changing skies. It happens so fast we can almost miss it happening...nice capture!
Short lived, but you got it!
Bobbie these are lovely sunsets. I particularly liked the glow cast onto the grass and trees with the sunset. It warms everything in the picture.
You were not too late in capturing the glorious sunset. The color is very rich.
Oh bobbie! Glad you were there and that you had your camera!
Nature is truly beautiful! Happy weekend! Hope you get time to visit my corner too...
No doubt about it, you can just about watch it move when it gets that close to the horizon. Coming up or going down! Back in October when I spent a good deal of time catching both sunrise and sunset over the ocean I was stunned at how rapid the change was.
Great job catching the phases!
Gorgeous shots!
I've been noticing lately too that I have to be quick to get outside. Sometimes I just forget the camera and enjoy. :)
The sky is always a source of inspiration, isn't it. I guess that's why we love the Sky Watch meme!
I've found that participating in memes in such simple, fun way has actually helped me to be more aware of what's around me.
These are wonderful. Especially as we contemplate winter. Nice that you were able to capture this fleeting sunset.
Nice - it's amazing how well you captured the first hint of changing light in that top photo.
Lovely photos of the sun setting in the skies. I never take photots, I just don't think of it!
WOW - these photos are amazing. The changing views are beautiful. Great pictures and beautiful sunset.
Beautiful!
The third photo is wonderful.
That one is my favourite.
I so envy all you people with such great photographic skills.
Bear((( )))
i love the last most!:)
You certainly have to be quick on the draw to catch it before it flits away. Well done.
Your sunsets are gorgeous!!
Yes in the last few minutes of sunset, the colors change very fast. In winters at your place it must be faster.
Happy sky watch Friday
