Projekt 52 week 14: The sun sets

The topic of week 14 in Sari’s photo Projekt 52:

The sun sets

Ever since I’m participating in this project, I occasionally come across motifs of which I think they’d fit this or that topic which surely will show up some time – I shot this photo in late January to have it “on stock”, so I don’t regard this as cheating, by the way. :mrgreen:

Especially since it’s questionable in these rather dull days if you get to see a proper sunset…

My personal sunset from my balcony.


Furthermore, after reaching into the archives, I got a second image I want to show you:

Sunset in Montreux on the Lake Geneva shoreline.

(Sep.2006)


In my Montreux 2006 gallery, there are also two photos with the Freddie Mercury statue:

Freddie’s statue at sunset (now without people)

 

Nice weather + new camera = …

… much more photos than I am able to present here (and of course several from just testing, which wouldn’t be worth it). :)

And nature isn’t all that green and in blossom around here yet; forsythia blossoms, for instance, are still closed. Well then, here’s a little selection – click to get to the flickr pages with larger versions:

On my Flickr page (archive 9 March) I got a few more.

No too spectacular an image, but simply my Epipremnum – but it’s the very first photo with my new Canon EOS 40D (in full-automatic mode, with flash), ordered on Monday and arrived today (quite fast for an advance-payment order):

So let’s see how many hundred pictures the weekend will bring… :mrgreen:
