Well, here are the photos that led to my severely bruised elbow, in sequential order. I've really enjoyed watching how the sunset changes literally from moment to moment with each subtle shift of light, and I've tried to capture that by taking many photos. Among others, these three were taken in the span of about two or three minutes (click to enlarge, and please accept my apologies for the very, very poor quality of my ancient digital camera).
So, was it worth the blinding pain of landing on my elbow like I did? I'm not sure, but I really like these photos. It's not the most dramatic sunset I've captured, but I think the water-color-like aspects are very cool.
