Explosions in the sky
One of my favorite music artists is the band "Explosions in the Sky". They are an instrumental band with smooth ambient guitar riffs, haunting bass lines and they experiment with other sounds like chimes and off beat drum lines. Music that can change pace at any moment.
Their band name and music came to mind when I saw this sunset this evening as me and my friend drove to the beach for dinner after an afternoon of nature photography.
Just like their music, weather patterns and perfect weather can change in a moment's notice, so it is always a wonderful instance when you can catch a scene like this.
To me it looks like the sun has exploded in the sky, leaving firey waves of embers to fall through the evening clouds. Absolutely a gorgeous site.
I was also able to capture a shot of the moon on the beach right as the sun set.
Van Gogh would be in awe of hinself if he could have painted a sky that looks like this. Sometimes the best thing is to just sit in the moment and take it all in. Well done, Mother Nature. You have outdone yourself once again.
Nature at its best....
I absolutely agree. Poems are written about sunsets and evenings like this. Beautiful skies, oceans and the sun are some of our greatest resources, yet we neglect or abuse it's beauty. Hopefully one day we'll wise up, appreciate them and take care of this planet.
Well, sunset is one of the best beauty of nature.Excellent photography.
Beautiful landscape photos!
How amazing! A sunset from the angle that you see it will always be beautiful
Impressive these landscapes, greetings @jgullinese
Great shot, but I was instantly taken in by the title, great taste in music I love 'Explosions in the Sky', totally agree on the amazing ambience of their music. You might might like 'Tycho' if you haven't ever listened to him check him out, he also has a great ambient sound! Keep up the good work and great idea linking the title to an awesome music artist!
