Hope everybody is having a great Sky Watch Friday !
I don't think this sunset could have looked any redder, but that's pretty much what it looked like... --Up on Mount Tamalpais looking towards Bolinas.
But as pretty as this photo is, I think I prefer sunrises over sunsets. With a sunrise the day is just beginning, and with a sunset it is fairly obvious when the show is over.

woohoo! first.
i really like this one.
It´s all those glowing little details that make this so great. Like tiny golden music playing in the sunset.
Yes, sunrise and sunset can give us incredible colours. No doubt some will think it enhanced.
It's a fine shot.
Interesting how the sky looks like it is in layers.
Maybe Aileni is right that some people will think this is enhanced. But it wasn't MY first thought because I've spent a lot of time looking at skies. Nature is amazing and doesn't always need our help. ;-)
I'll give you a 10! Very beautiful colors
Hats off for that photo - an enormous span from top to bottom. Not for everyone :-(
love it!
looks like a postcard!

I'm a sunset girl myself. Great photo, beautiful colours
I like the horizontal color lining in this 3-elements-scape (land, water and sky and even a bit of fire of the sun)
What deep and beautiful color. I agree about sunrises and sunsets, but don't turn down a beautiful opportunity for either!
You just captured the golden moment of sunset! beautiful!
Youreally get the full blast on the larger image. Astonishing.
Stunning!!! love it!
It's beautiful - like the clouds whisps!
Cheers, Klaus
Wowee kazowie! that is almost surreal. beautiful!
lovely sunset... same here..
Yup, that's a beauty all right! Besides the color, & the details of the land, I love the deliniation at the horizon!
wow!
What a beautiful sunset this picture is!!!!
It's like somebody drew the sunset in the sky!
Great capture and amazing color.
Well done.
We can't see our sunset because the sky is dark grey...it is full of rain ready for the holiday weekend!
Donald, thank you so much for visiting my site and so allowing me a portal into viewing yours. I love your work! The sky photos are truly fabulous. Plus the Visitors, the Ripples (I wish I took that!) and the Exploding Wave are all first class. Your photos make me nostalgic for Northern CA (lived in Sonoma Co for many years) as I now live in Seattle. But you can take great photos anywhere, of course, and you have done so. Thanks again.
Wow! That is a stunning photo!
I love the wisps of clouds across the large expansive sky. Magnificent color Don.
Those colors are so rich and sharp, it looks like pure pigment
Oh it must be amazing to actually see a sky like this.
I love the red sky and gorgeous clouds! Great photo!!
great Don!!
We saw the same red sky yesterday here in Holland, maybe we looked at the same moment to the same sky!

The show may be over, but what a show!
Thanks for your kind words about my old dog.
Wow! I love this picture...love the colors and everything about it.
I'm guessing the yellow are clouds nice colors.
Thanks for stopping by again.
Coffee is always on.
Wow...That's truly stunning! Don't you love living in the age of photography? ;)
Waaaaaaaaaa! This is beautiful! :) Yup!!!! :)
this is so beautiful. love the photo!
This is absolutely stunning!
I also love the image in your header.
And...the edge of the earth - awesome, and ripples.
Nice blog. :)
great shots! And to me sunset and the magic hours that follow makes me opt for dusk rather than dawn~~
I am not ready to stay up all night for the sun rise. LOL
Really gorgeous! Sat HI to Marin for me, I grew up there. Phoenix Lake in Ross, Tamarack in Fairfax, Mesa Road in Bolinas, Deer Island in Novato... it was a great place to grow up! Thanks for visiting my Skywatch and for your kind words. Bonnie
Wow! That is a really intense colour palette, very beautiful.
That sunset is a stunner, we used to learn to grade the sky just like that in art school. The tonal range in the sky is accentuated by the dark island in the foreground. Although I too prefer the sunrise, there is just something special about the light in the early morning, this sunset blows me away.
Love the fog too, especially in SF with the accompanying hooting of foghorns.
The colors are amazing!
nice color!! I love it.
I love all the photos but the red sunset is awesome
Great photo. Nice dynamic range.
I agree, sunrises are best. Exciting things are getting ready to happen.

Wow .. that day ended with a bang! What magnificent colour and getting the panorama just emphasizes just how all encompassing it must have been!
Thanks for your visit and comments on my SWF. Sorry to be so late making my visits ~ it was a hectic weekend here!
Great colors, a wonderful choice for skywatch Friday.
