Cotswold Sunset Walks..!

:gnthb: It was such a beautiful afternoon here I went for a late walk & caught the sunset as I walked round the west side of the village... I always think the church tower looks lovely with that orange glow..



The sun dips out of sight now & then but the hill top ridge I think, makes a good shot..



Trees make such good silhouettes...



Up near the top & the sun pops up again..



It seemed like I was chasing the sun at one point.. Only in the winter can I take shots like this...



Last glimps for a few minutes as my walk takes me out of sight for a few minutes..



When the sun is this low at this time of year this window glows like a huge orange fire the whole room lights up with it... Sadly I couldn't get round there in time, all was left was this shot by then....



Just image those last few rays reflected there, all over that window & so bright it hurts your eyes... Fabulous.. Will try another day for that shot..

Sun is setting....



I love the oranges, purples & blues you get at this time of the year.... Almost gone..



Gone.....



The colour fades to show off the trees again..



This is a large Rookery & they are settling down for the night now as the last of the colour drains from the sky...



Well that was my walk this afternoon.. I hope you enjoyed...:D

 

Thank you roders LoL & Walnut... It was a particularly nice walk & that sun was sooo gorgeous...!! No sign of the sun yet today though..!!!:(

 

To see the sunset here at this time of year, we take a walk around what is locally called "Round the World" ..! It is all across farmland on footpaths & bridleways with a short stretch on the road... A lovely walk... I took a very late one this week & got some superb shots...! Some superb skys with this cold snap.!:gnthb::D Hope you enjoy & don't fall asleep.!:D
We walk through a beautiful garden as well & it's all public footpath..!



This is the garden's pond.!

A magical walk to me... You can get the sunset's reflections in the cloud over the eastern hill..

.

.The church in the reflected light..

.

Looking back to the sunset from the bottom of the hill.. Going......!

Going.....

.
Gone...!! From the bottom of the hill..!

.

As you walk up to the church the sunset's reflected colours are pretty spectacular & the camera doesn't do it justice, even in close up..!!

.

There are some wicked Victorian chimney pots on this house & in this light are story book stuff I think..!!

.

Only in Winter when the sun is this low in the sky do we get these colours & cloud formations with the cold air.... Magic to me..!!:D

.

Lust a lucky shot of cloud & a Rose bush stump..!!

.

.

The moon & church & the last colours, again only in winter..

.

:thmb: Hope you enjoyed..

:gnthb: Thanks Lady & Kandy... The colours are especially good at this time of the year... Sometimes those chimneys look really spooky to Lady....
