Autumn Sunset

I must confess I had no clue about the Aurora that occurred over SE Australia and New Zealand the other morning and I really am miffed about it. However to ease my creative soul, Mother Nature handed me this shot………..so I guess overall I really can’t complain.

Nothing beats the strange Autumn colors over the Australian Skies at sunset, the light is a bit harsher than sunrise, but there is still that air of magic. It was still warm, and so calm……..you can just catch the bugs reflecting the light in the middle of the shot………there were hundreds of them. I sat taking photos for awhile, but this was what I refer to as ‘The Money Shot’ Moth keeps asking me why I call it that……..it really does not make me any money! But it truly gladdens my heart to capture something so near perfection and share it with everyone. It’s one of those MOMENTS when you are truly feel alive and filled with wonder.

Enjoy!
