Another sunset?!

You’d think I’d get tired of taking pictures of the sunset over Flathead Lake. But you’d be wrong.

Tonight as Kyra and I were playing an intense game of Bomberman on the theater screen, I looked out the window and noticed a gorgeous orange sunset. I told her she’d have to wait to blow me up while I took out my camera.

After the March windstorm, the forest has thinned and we can see Woods Bay to the north, and the Salish Mountains on the northwest horizon. If those trees were still there, we wouldn’t be treated to this view. Not surprisingly, the sun sets pretty far to the north these days.

The photo above was taken at 9:30; within a few minutes the colors had deepened and the sky turned breathtaking shades of red and violet.

Just… wow.
