Maumelle Sunset

I went out on the deck one evening last week and noticed some nice color starting to develop in the sky. I rushed back in and grabbed my camera bag and tripod and headed out the door. There is a new neighborhood being developed near the house on what was once a tree covered hillside. With the trees gone (which I hate) there is a wide open view of the western skyline. I set up my tripod and camera and waited. Before long, the color really started to pop. I took several shots at several exposures until the sun disappeared behind the horizon. It's amazing how fast the sun moves when your struggling to get that magic exposure. The following are two of about seventy shots.
