Mother Nature treated me to another beautiful sunset on this evening.
I grabbed the camera and headed outside to take pics.
I headed out into the middle of the parking lot to take advantage of the better view.
Zooming in on the colors worked as long as I had something else in the shot, like the trees, on which the camera could focus.
Turning the other direction, I spotted a cloud that was partially lit by the sunset.
This one cloud appeared to be the only one in this direction that was lit because of the sunset.
Shooting in this direction looks almost directly west. The setting sun reflected on the clouds quite nicely.

Zooming in on the colorful clouds worked fine as long as I had trees in the shot.

I headed out to the fuel island that has an elevated platform by one of the tanks.
This platform provides a great view to the west.

I like the contrasting colors with the clouds in the photo above.
Mother Nature always does a great job of reminding me that there is a lot of good in this world if you know where to look.
