One thing I love about the midwest.
I have been witnessing breathtaking sunsets from my car this week, but I was finally home at the perfect time yesterday. The colors were constantly changing, so I would snap a picture, and Rebecca would yell, “Mom! You need to get your camera out again!” I love that Rebecca is on the lookout for God’s beauty, too.
Sometimes it is difficult to capture the color of a sunset – if you get too much of the dark silhouette of the land, it washes out the colors of the sky. So I try to fill the frame with as much sky as possible. Whew. Worked this time.

I used to live in Nebraska and now I’m in South Dakota…and I agree….there’s just nothing like Midwest sunsets. When I go to other places, I always look forward to the sunsets (as I take LOTS of pictures of sunsets). I always think…”Hmm…this just isn’t quite the same.” I don’t think it’s because they are better necessarily, they’re just more abundant. After years of photos, November seems to be the one that has the best ones (sunrises too.) Great pics!
