Skywatch Friday: Intracoastal Waterway, Surf City, NC

IMG 2053

Just another slow good-bye to the sun from the pier at Surf City. I don't mind solitude, and I don't mind peace, so it was wonderful to enjoy this view on my own last month.

  1. Gorgeous sunset, fabulous capture as always, Sandy! I surely don't mind solitude -- in fact, sometimes I crave it! And I love the feelings of peace that can come from sky watching! Hope you have a great weekend! Enjoy!

  4. Saluting your post, I wish to state what I put in my book A LITTLE MORE THAN ORDINARY..

    "Sink with me to come out of depths"
    Said the setting sun
    And I just sank with it,
    Coming out of depths could be fun

    A great capture of the sunset and of the mood you perfectly describe. Sounds like a little bit of what we could all do with from time to time.

  27. That is wonderful! It's the scene that you watch until there's no more light in the sky and you realise with a shock that it's actually quite dark all around. Just perfect!
