Tonight's Sunset

Watching a big round sun set on Manila Bay is my extra special bonus when I am called to an early evening meeting at Hotel Sofitel Philippine Plaza.


Manila, 2011

This sunset [more beautiful enlarged] is linked with SkyWatch Friday. Check out the hundreds of stunning skies seen and captured from around our globe.

    Totally gorgeous and tropical. The orange disk of the sun is beautiful here, and as I looked at it I wondered if it looked red to you in real life. I find that red suns always turn yellow in the camera. Do you know any way to get them to stay red?

    So you have a bonus from the meeting! I will repeat my previous comment on Manila Bay sunsets, I haven't seen any of them in person, but i guess mine are also as stunning.

    Do you, perhaps, take such photographs for book covers. I'm sure I've seen them before! :-)

    Hard to beat such a setting and a such a setting sun!
