SUNSET that colored the Franklin Mountains that is. I've seen those mountains go red sometimes and then this one that's more or less orange. It doesn't happen all the time but when it does you better have your camera handy fast cuz it doesn't last long. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Just curious, how many people do you know who should be singing this song?
Mac Davis singing his song 'Hard to be a Humble' live during a Kenny Rogers concert in the 80's.

Beautiful photo. The light changes so fast at sunrise and sundown that it's better to be ready and be quick.

Yes, that has happened to me so often. Now I simply keep my phone with me mostly so that I can call someone if I happen to get hurt while outside ..... I never know what Roscoe might do .... so now I have a camera handy all the time.

Oh, he's a year old and a hand full right now. He is calmer than he was when he was between 3 and 7 months old but still kinda hyper, he has that working dog mentality which means this old woman will have to be much more active to give him the workout he needs.

Terrific photo! The contrast between the mountains and sky are awesome Yes, it's hard to be humble in a world of self-promotion. As I say, don't get too high and mighty about yourself and accomplishments because a smack-down may be just around the corner.

Yep, Mac Davis is too funny, he clearly was trying not to laugh while singing this song.

I didn't think I would be happy with one either but I bought an iphone 12 pro max with a camera that yields 12 mega pixels which is what I used to take this shot, it's not as good as my nikon but it isn't nearly as bad as the samsung was.
