Tonight was my early night out from work - hurray for time to get out on the water before sunset!



The sunset was truly amazing tonight. I hope you can see on the smaller images but I captured a totally cool halo effect on the lower half of the glowing sun in this photo. It was really spectacular...



As it sank lower a thin cloud bisected the sun. I used a telephoto on all these shots, the closer you can bring the sun in to fill your frame the better!



Once the sun set I turned my attention to the water for a little fun as we headed back to the dock. On Sport Setting you can see all the Sargassum Weed that has floated in with the latest wind shift.



Switch it to Portrait, however, and the water blends into the neatest, smoothest appearance.

We're having a quick dinner of grilled brats tonight and Marianna has made the most addictive stuffed jalapeno peppers to go alongside. Yum! Happy Sunday!
