Remains of the day
Thanksgiving Day...evening (photo taken from my backyard)"Softly the evening came.
The sun from the western horizon
Like a magician extended his golden want o'er the landscape;
Trinkling vapors arose;
and sky and water and forest
Seemed all on fire at the touch, and melted and mingled together."
~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Nice view Isabella. I'm afraid I was so deep into the Thanksgiving festivities with the family that I had not noticed the sun setting. :D
I hope you had a wonderful day.
Thanks, and Happy Thanksgiving!

WOW! Come on, that's not fair, so much beauty around and one inside dealing with papers...
Et le dinde???
"It takes less time to do a thing right than explain why you did it wrong." said Longfellow. One of the few quotes I ever learnt. However difficult advice to follow!
Happy continuation of Thanksgiving!
gmg - le dinde (the turkey) was plump and juicy and fully stuffed...as I am right now ;-)
Wonderful photo! Happy Thanksgiving!
Beautiful way to end the day, with a beautiful sunset. You captured it great.
This photo even has the colors of Thanksgiving, all rich and harvesty.
:) This photo is as beautiful as the movie by the same name was.
quel cial de rêve!
un des plus beaux classiques de la photo, magnifique et toujours mis en valeur par la poésie sur ton blog. Bravo
Je te souhaite un bon weekend
One of the finest classical picture, wonderful and always highlighted by poetry on your blog. Bravo
I wish you a good weekend
We had ice pellets here about the time you were taking the sunset photo. It is 30 here this morning. I like you sunset. It sure is brilliant.
Longfellow knew a thing or two. There's a sculpture of him in Menton, as you may remember.
And you know a thing or two, too - about photography. Just beautiful.
Isabella,u have some wounderfull pictures i like it
Spectacular sunset.
It is very rare for us to see one like this.
Do you get them like that often?
(Please, only answer if you can roll off the couch to do so - I've heard about those notorious thanksgiving pig-outs!).
Hey - how did that happen?!
That's me up there- not vinni30!
Great sunset, especially the way the clouds stand out.
I'm looking at a brilliant full moon right now ( there are several jokes possible :)
Wow that's a beauty. I'm feeling warmer just by looking at it! Hope you had a wonderful holiday.
Happy thanksgiving,
My dearest Isabella!
Thanks for stooping at myblog,

JoAnn:)
Hope your week-end is as glorious as your photo. It is a spectacular sunset. Try competing with nature...can't be done! Longfellow ain't bad either!!
Spectacular. Another thing to be thankful for.
what a beautiful view, Isabella.....much as I complain about heat and humidity, I am gonna miss these spectacular sunsets of Florida when I move lock, stock , and barrel to West Coast...
I was into some pretty intense turkey and dressing eating about this time and missed it altogether.
You caught a beautiful sunset there.
