Sailing off into the sunset

Sunset, Rockland Maine (click to enlarge)
.

Pretty much speaks for itself, doesn't it? I know I'd rather be out there right now, and I suspect I'm not alone in that wish.

More skies from around the world can be seen here.

No, you're not alone!

Wild, I have a couple of shots very much like this from a completely different part of the country. There's a reason it's a classic scene, eh?

That is wonderful. I love the rich, warm orange of the sky. Must be lovely to motor home in that boat.

Such a lovely shot! I am from Maine, living in New Mexico where there isn't much water at all. This photo makes me homesick for New England.

Thank you for sharing.

The colors reflected on the water is beautiful :)

Hell, no, you're not alone! Maine and Canada's Fundy Shore had some exceptional weather this summer. We spent two glorious weeks in Nova Scotia. One of the most peaceful and creative get-aways we've had yet.

The photo does speak for itself. Actually, it siiiiiiiiighs contentedly! ;-)

Best,
Gina

What a gorgeous pictures. I've lived on a Carribean island, and to be perfectly honest with you, it's not all it's cracked up to be ! Just stopping by from Life as I see it. Have a great week-end !
