1. Beautiful Peggy!
I noticed that crescent moon last night and was thinking it'd be cool picture with the sunset. Glad you got it! :applause:

2. My dear bluesbassman!
Oh, thanks, sweetie!

I'd forgotten about it til I spotted it...and I thought, what the hell...maybe it won't be too blurry!

I love my back balcony...it's almost perfect for sunsets, except for the goddamn wires...

I was able to crop out the stupid pole, at least...

:pals:

7. Peggy. You are in Manhattan Beach? Huh? Why did I think you
were on the peninsula? Anyway, that explains why you were on the pier with that truck driver, Jonah, Jason, Tobin, that's it.
Ok, Peggy, I'll see your sunset photos (not that I've seen them before) and I'll raise you one sunrise photo, taken here on Morro Bay.

8. My dear david13!
I have no idea why you thought I lived up on the Peninsula! I have taken some pictures up there, though not many...

Your Morro Bay picture is really nice...

Sunrise pictures from here are not very interesting...plus I'm not usually up then!

Thanks for sharing...

13. There should be a sunset picture thread that never dies. All pictures are
stunning, I particularly like the first with the abundance of sky - its very haunting.

15. Nice pic Miss CP
Friday I got off work a little early and drove Alley to El Porto to catch the new moon at dusk. We could just make it out, 6 degrees above the horizon and only 23 hours old which is unusually young for a new moon here in So Cal. Even if I remembered to bring a camera I don't think our little 3 megapixel instamatic could pick it up.

18. My dear denbot!
Yeah, the new moon was tiny...and oh so beautiful...

I thought I had a chance that it might be worth photographing. And what do you know...

It was.

Glad you enjoyed!

Oh, thanks!

I really hoped it would turn out...

I don't have the lens necessary for astronomy type pictures...

It's my pleasure to share whatever beauty I have in my world...
