I got out of work today totally stressed. Jaw was clenched, chest was tight and all of the worries of the day set my sour mood. I decided to go to the pond in search of the Belted Kingfisher. He was not there but the sunset was.
I am a sunrise kind of gal. I love it when the sun opens its eyes the same time as I do. Sunsets have never been my thing until now.
All of the worries of the day disappeared as the sound of birds heading home for the night filled my ears with song. The smell of burning wood filled my nostrils and reminded me of campfires by the lake. The gentle breeze stroked my skin and the beautiful air filled my lungs. The vivid colors of the sky and water was a feast of life for my tired eyes.
I left the pond in a better mood. Sunrises are the perfect way to end your day.

Beautiful reflections Kim.
Sorry your day was stressful. These are amazing sunset photos. Nothing like fresh air and God's artwork to put you in a better frame of mind. Sleep well!
The beauty of a wonderful sunset, such as you just experienced will do that for you. It does lift your spirits. Great set of photo.
Thanks, Kim. I feel so much better now. You didn't see that dastardly bird, but you did witness a gorgeous sunset and had some healing moments. Lovely.
My nickname for these are rorschach sunsets (or rises), the way everything is a mirror reflection. These are some of the best ever!!
Beautiful reflections in the photos and in your heart!Bless you, Kallen!
Hi Kim, There's nothing better to help get over a stressful day than to get outside in nature.. The sunset is marvelous!!!!!
Hugs,
Betsy
Beautiful photos - and glad that it did the trick :)
I just love the reflections on the pond. Beautiful set of photos!
oooo-aaaah, nice photos. It's always good to go for a walk after work to decompress.
the symmetry on these are great! the third picture is the most succesful with that but i think i like the second picture best. it's hard to pick!
I remember those stressful work days too. You can't beat a bit of Nature to get it all back in perspective - it's good for the soul. Stunning photos too.
Lovely peaceful photos Kallen.
A beautiful way to end the day indeed.... gorgeous.
There have been some gorgeous sunsets lately. Looks like you were lucky enough to catch one for yourself! It really does give you a sense of peace : )
Great reflections!!

Stunning Kim! The reflections are awesome.
These are excellent sunset photos- great to drink a hot cup of coffee to! Have a great weekend Kallen!!
Nature is a great stress reducer :-) These skies are lovely and we all need more time just looking and enjoying and getting away from the "world".
Fantastic picture. I love the second. It was worth wlaking and getting the stress out of your soul!
There is a calming effect from a beautiful sunset. And I am glad you were there to reap its benefits.
All those shots are beautiful. Helen
Absolutely stunning! The photographs are so calming and soothing that I can't imagine how beautiful it was in person.
These pictures were really gorgeous. I especially like the colorshifts and the reflections. I wont pick out the best picture, I would like to see them as a slideshow. Thank you for sharing.
Beautiful...I really love the last photo and the reflection. Nothing like singing birds and seeing a beautiful sunset to help melt the stress.
