Sunset: Bright Color Cliche

Orange yellow and purple sunset in Gainesville Florida
Sunsets are great colors, but provide very little creativity. I tried to make this one at least a little interesting with the tree line.

Alice in Wonderland

This post has nothing to do with the beloved book by Lewis Carroll, rather this is a picture of Lake Alice. The wonderland where Alice can be found is Gainesville Florida. I'm not sure what kind of magic really goes on here, or if many people do any wondering, but I find life quite wonderful in this strange land. This wonder may have to do with my personal outlook, and the many blessings that the Lord has provided me with. As tough as life gets when we find the bright aspects and rabbit hole can be a wonderland.

Purple Sunset

The thing about sunrises and sunsets is that there is no end to the colors that show up. I haven't seen many green sunsets, but that doesn't mean it can't happen (correct me if I'm wrong). This purple sunset was taken in Gainesville, Florida. One drawback to all the trees is that it is hard to find a good place to shoot a sunset. However I was able to catch this and several others through the trees.

This picture reminded me of a great quote by C.S. Lewis, "I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else." More about Christ
