I had a chance to mix flowers with Sunset and it came out pretty good.steemCreated with Sketch.

Once in awhile I get the chance to combine two loves. This time it was the sunset combined with the redbud tree in my front yard! The sunset was beautiful but the redbud tree really confuse my camera so I had to take a lot of pictures to get a couple of good ones. It kept trying to focus on the redbud tree and then it would destroy the sunset I finally managed to get it to focus on the sunset in near field on the tree.

This is a Galaxy 4 cell phone camera and I took it off of automatic did they get a little better light input. It did look a little better after I took it off automatic but the picture itself was surreal.

It was almost like the world was holding it's collective breath everything was just a little quieter. No cars, no traffic noise, not even any kids out playing!

The sky itself was on fire beautiful the clouds are perfect the sun was perfect everything just lit up! It kind of stole a little of the fire, from the redbud tree. But I think the mix works!

Not bad for a tree that I can eat, LOL!

Sometimes, when you step out, you can tell things are special. This was one of those times...all I had to do was wrestle the camera a little.

That autofocus was playing hell with the picture quality. I turned it off, and zoomed just a tiny amount, to be sure the camera knew what I wanted. It worked!

You captured something lovely here... better than "pretty good"... it's almost an essay in colour. 💜

I put this post fwd into the c-squared curation community.

Thank you, I was happy with these pictures, and I am glad you liked them!

Thank you for helping my post. What is the C-squared community? It sounds interesting...

not very impressive smithlabs. Ogres will eat anything.

So, I should have put this on a foodie site?

Of course, I am immune to advice from someone from Texas....

so you're admitting to being an Ogre? lol. I knew Oklahoma was full of Big Foots!
That would be funny to put that on a foodie site though! Hey they say they'll take any
kind of food!

Actually, Red Bud flowers are good to eat, ROFLOL!

I am pretty sure that the Big Foot problem is just them, avoiding Texans by moving north...next time I see him, I will ask....

They tell me that the expansion straight North out of Dallas is so fast that in 20 years it'll hit the Red River!

Well, if we put enough machine guns with interlacing fire zones, we can stop them at the border, ROFLOL!

We got this.

Actually, that is way too far for the city to grow that fast. It takes a LONG time to build that many miles of buildings.
