Sunsets. Nature makes the best art, if you are looking.

Sunsets make wonderful photos. They really seem to capture people's attention and fade away just as quickly as they appear. I guess that's why people like pictures of them so much as they are so temporary. These are some of my favorite pictures I have taken over the years.

A lot of these were taken quite quickly. Sometimes a beautiful sunsets happens when you aren't expecting it. When that happens I just take the photo regardless of the location. I've been pleasently surprised with the results at times.

These photos have been run through photo editing software in some instances to create the effects I was looking for.

Balloons
Taken during the Glass City Balloon Race 2017. I had never been to a balloon race. This was an exciting way to see hot air balloon up close while watching them try to compete to see who could toss a marker closest to a target.

Sunset over Fifth Third Field
Photo taken in downtown Toledo Ohio from the deck of Fleetwood's Tap Room. You can see the lights strung above the deck and the stadium lighting in the background.

Southwest Airlines sunset
Sun setting over the wing on a flight home from Disney World. What a beautiful ending to an exciting trip

Aerial sunset
Sunset out an airplane window

Parking lot
I took this outside the mall. There's something I like about the wonderful naturap sunset with the modern technology in the foreground.
